i don't want to spoil anyone fun but it's been confirmed that n3 has been hacked the card has been dumped , the hack will not be released until n3 is rolled out nationally.

Dumping is the process of extracting the data contents of a card. all areas of the card including ROM (actual card program) and EEprom (data incl keys etc) has all been decrypted it's a matter of time they will all be back up and running and as for vm what waste in spending all that money in sending out new cards.

How come it was not done in Canada then?

I would not be surprised if that is the case though. There is nothing like someone saying you cant hack this to bring out the coders to try it

What about the systems that do not use cards?

it's a hacker from england who has managed to reverse engineer a vm smartcard. Thats all I can say.

he has managed to peel away the 3 extra layers of silicone security chips using a powerful electron microscope and several different acids and lasers until he got to the final precious bottom 3 layers of the Kudelski chip where all the precious codes are hidden

The bottom 3 layers of the Kudelski chip is where all the precious codes are hidden not anymore.

At the end of the day the only reason why N1 was hacked was because NDS (SKY) hired a hacker to hack nagra 1 NDS was working on this for 6 weeks so they hired a hacker who managed to do it 1 week for a 6 figure sum. nagra are trying to hack into a nds card and vice versa thats how the business goes.

The ones that haven't been sent out yet?!

Wouldn't the story about n3 being hacked just be the type of titbit that the suppiers of the boxes would spread to try to get rid of all their stock before the true position became common knowledge?

After all who would want to be left with a load of doorstops when there are still gullible punters about who will believe unsubstantiated rumours.
