Can you crack the secret code in U.S. Cyber Command's logo
The newly formed U.S. Cyber Command is supposed to centralize and focus the military's ability to wage war over the Internet, but so far it's basically famous for brainteasers. The command's fancy logo contains a super-secret code in its inner gold ring: 9ec4c12949a4f31474f299058ce2b22a. Though some people noticed the code late last month, Wired's Threat Level Danger Room blog picked it up Wednesday morning and announced a contest, with a free T-shirt (or a ticket to the International Spy Museum) going to the first reader to crack the code.

Did you read the article? http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_upshot...-commands-logo We tried encrypting that entire statement using an MD5 hash generator, and we didn't get a match to the logo code. So it looks like just a portion of the statement has been encoded. Eventually someone will figure out which portion, and win a T-shirt |
The journalists in the article tried to hash the wrong mission statement.
They used the mission statement found on the official source. Since the source is a military intelligence agency, the military hackers changed their mission statement to confuse people, and maybe for a good laugh. Or for the sake of creating some publicity :winkwink: http://www.stratcom.mil/factsheets/cc/ Quote:
This gives you the MD5 hash ac244cda9fa3ab16a2a51dc4f16b1547. If you remove the extra comma you will get Quote:
Voila. Mystery solved. :upsidedow |

I love a good mystery.

Well done Zyber. By name by nature. Zyber = cypher |
I hope they come up with something better then an MD5 hash really soon.

cam_girls, thanks. However, the story of my name nickname is a bit different :)
2012, you could take a look at SHA-256 or SHA-512 instead of MD5. Or wait till 2012 (pun intented), when SHA-3 is scheduled to be released. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Hash_Algorithm |
The SHA-256 and SHA-512 are available as of PHP5.
