Computer Network’s Time (Synchronization) Systems Espionage and Its Possible Consequences

This paper proposes cryptanalysis attacks on network time (synchronization) systems method (computer espionage) based on timestamp fractional value falsification that software’s implant realizes. For massive time stamps using in a public key infrastructure, the considered method of attack can comple...

Description
Summary:This paper proposes cryptanalysis attacks on network time (synchronization) systems method (computer espionage) based on timestamp fractional value falsification that software’s implant realizes. For massive time stamps using in a public key infrastructure, the considered method of attack can completely compromise that infrastructure.
