Fuck DES/AES encryption. Just port forward everything through an SSH tunnel. I'll be goddamned if there is a better way.

annnnd argument BEGIN!


*edit*
0.1 - JLenkins - Specified what encryption referred, to remove vagueness for the stupids.

There is. Make a connection with a honeypot server with username and password as "password" (yes, for both), then have a script just send "password" over and over and over again over the insecure connection and imagine as potential hax0rs squirm
 
Good point Fork, but you didn't explain that the 1st time.
Let these 2 IT nerds discuss away, but can you explain to me how a LASER works? Don't look it up on the web you shits. what does the acronym stand for? Did you know LASER is an acronym?

Hint: The key word is AMPLIFICATION, if you can explain WHAT is amplified, then you'll know the basics of how a laser works (any type of laser).

i presented a project on lasers in grade 11 physics class Mike

light amplification something emission radiation


specially coated mirrors bounce forced light (from a power source) between each other, but their special coating only permits specific light waves to exit through one end, so the light that exits is focused and harmonious since all the lightwaves match and point in one direction

increased power and further focusing using ground glass will increase the intensity of said light, allowing certain lasers to burn through solid objects.

:)

EDIT: S is for stimulated, i always forget that one (even during my presentation! lol)

and forgive me if i may be slightly off, i did the research 9 years ago and physics is not even my focus in life.

HEY! DON'T CALL ME AN IT NERD!!! IF YOU DO, do it tomorrow night ~8pm @ Scotland Yard :)

Honey Pots are wicked little beasties. I myself prefer to forward my traffic over port 80. Almost impossible without some sort of stateful inspection to derive what the data is. And usually port 80 is rarely blocked.

Man, I remember why I quit that game. Oh right, I liked to make REAL money.

Actually, its probably

but just because I rove you.
 
Leroy's a nerd, Leroy's a nerd, Leroy's a nerd.
I know you are, but what am I?

Not bad Fork.

The key part about amplification, is the electron energy state POPULATION INVERSION. Everything about how a laser works is PI. Electrons live in their lowest energy states, that's just how the uni works. sometimes they get "bumped" into higher or excited energy states ( a different orbital shell), but they never stay there long (nano to microseconds) and drop back down releasing a photon of specific energy (i.e wavelength) as they do.. The key to lasers is that the outer electrons are kept in a state of excitation by the initial energy pump (usually electricity, but can be light too), and the "mirror" effect, which keeps the light inside, so those photons keep bumping the electrons back up into excited states. Thus a PI.

So you have electrical or light STIMULATION (input energy), then you have a cavity where all the electrons of some material can be excited and you have reflective surfaces ("mirrors") to kept the resulting photons bouncing back and forth, to keep the electrons excited, so they keep dropping down and making more photons.

Now if i make one of the mirrors 0.1% less then perfect reflection, some light gets out. that's the LASER light we "see". 99.9% of the laser light is trapped inside the cavity and NEEDS to be or else the feedback loop fails and the lasing action stops. Lasers are god awful inefficient!!!

Now 2 things can happen to stop lasing:
1. open one of the mirrors and let ALL the light out (AMPLIFICATION stops)
or
2. turn off our input energy (STIMULATION), the photons bounce back and forth, but nature is NEVER without drag or resistance, so the photons scatter and deplete or don't perfectly hit the next electron, so it doesn't go to the right excitation level, etc, etc. Within microseconds the photons are lost and lasing stops.

Now some details about the "mirrors" and why I use quotes around that word. A "mirror" is anything that reflects light, right? When you look out a window direct on you see right through it right? but if you look at it at an ANGLE, it can be almost reflective...like a mirror! Like looking at a calm lake, you can see the whole horizon reflected in it! But is water a mirror?

So the word "mirror" is subjective when it comes to explaining lasers. It really just means "reflective to that wavelength of light".

Edit: i will explain more about cavities and mirrors if anyone is interested.
 
you nerds may now go back to your Honey Pot discussion, however "Honeypot" has a completely diff definition to me.
