Dutch and French authorities have cracked another encrypted communication service that criminals allegedly used to communicate with each other. The service, named Matrix, was the successor to previously cracked services such as ANOM, Sky ECC, and EncroChat. Police were able to intercept over 2.3 million messages and were able to read along with conversations for months.
When was this? In years past there were weird restrictions about exporting strong encryption algorithms from the US. So much so that Java didn’t have unlimited strength algorithms bundled by default. Depending on the time she said this/she was talking about then it could’ve just been a comment on the weak algorithms being, well, weak.
