Over 140 mln cell phones are now used in Russia; they provide for accessible and convenient connection. There is a special, very reliable subsystem of confidential cellular connection on the basis of Megafon operator. There is only one analogous system, in the United States. As we know, now it is used mostly by top-ranking governmental officials, although commercial companies can also join the subsystem.
What does put limits on the use of it? The answer is simple: absence of a relatively low-cost crypto smart phone with confidentiality protection. It will allow to settle the task of personal information protection of dozens of thousands of police officers and civil servants, including those from the foreign ministry. Why doesn’t the State Duma establish a special group to study question of information protection of personal data for Russian civil servants because of the increasing activity of cyber terrorism? The matter is not only technical or economical, but an organizational one. We faced practically the same problem many years ago while creating our coder for the Central Bank, which was 20 times less expensive than analogous coders made by state-run companies.
Now, cyber has been searching for new methods and Now, cyber terrorism has been searching for new methods and approaches. Are we ready to withstand its attacks?
