Calypso,

Tristrata's implementation of "theoretically unbreakable" one time pad encryption is interesting. But I can't honestly say that I know enough about how it works to come to any conclusion about its viability in the commercial market. Based on the description, I would also think that their solution is very expensive, but I don't really know.

One thing is for sure, however, if it is unbreakable, the US gov't will never allow it to be exported.

If you or any one else can explain a little bit about how one time pad encryption works, and how it is used in Tristrata's solution, it would be greatly appreciated.

thanx,
Enam
