    I got this idea from a Star Trek film and so it may have been mentioned many times before, in which case I apologise if it has. For the sake of easy to explain my idea I'll just talk about passwords but I believe it could also be applied to cypers

    Instead of having static passwords why not have ones that are dynamic/rotate. What I mean is, a password which changes on a very frequent basis such as every few seconds.

    In order to break a dynamite password I was thinking that a minimum about of CPU power being devoted to the Password_Breaker would be required. This would represent the software having to work fast enough in order to get the password before the system changes it.

    If this idea were to be implemented it would mean that high level systems would be secure against hackers just starting out as their gateway wouldn't have the requied CPU power.

    The CPU minimum also points out that unlike static passwords a dynamite password can't be broken just by using hundreds of bounces, you'll need enough hardware.

    Incase people start saying a system like this is unrealistic I do have a thought of justifying the idea but I will not bring it up unless asked as it would difficult to explain.

    P.S I apologise for any mistakes that may appear in what I have written. If there is anything that needs explaining just ask.

    And if the security system is advanced enough, you could get a 'Security ID timed out' message after a few minutes :twisted:
