[Gllug] Alan_Cox Banks UK not secure

[Ivan Dimitrov]

Did you see that ....it is  23 .20 and apparently most of the banks are 
using IBM computers
/4852 or something/ for encrypting their  traffic and credit card etc..
A student from Cambridge has menage to crack the Security that took 
millions to build and
many people involved /military grade/.The hack is combination between 
software and hardware!!!
It allows you to generate card number and pin code and draw virtually any 
amount of money
without being caught . It is publish on the web in the last hour but they 
didn't show the address !!!
It was a common opinion that all bank should consider to listen to Open 
source community and
many of them are relaying on "Security through obscurity" !!!

Any one more info ???

Apparently IBM Technicians have to stay whole night to find the solutions 
in USA :)!!!
