"The history of mankind is also a history of secrets, attacks and defense of
the confidential. Steganography, cryptography and technical tools support us in
protecting the private. The antagonists of confidentiality operate - depending
on the actor - outside or inside legal frameworks, often adapting them with
bogus arguments.
If we have objects or devices outside our view, we cannot rule out that there
was unwanted/unauthorized access to them and the confidentiality and integrity
possibly no longer exists. If there has been an unauthorized access (attempt),
it is in the interest of the affected parties
(owner/proprietor/transmitter/receiver) to know about it in order to initiate
any follow-up measures and not to think themselves in a false sense of
security.
For thousands of years, seals have been used in various forms with the goal of
certifying the confidentiality and integrity of letters, for example. Attacks
on these protective measures are similarly old. This continues to this day, but
these attacks are now taking place on a very different level. A lot has changed
since then, especially due to digital communication and the widespread presence
of technical devices, as well as the accumulation and automated analysis of
data. Modern communication tools reach very deeply into our lives, so their
confidentiality and integrity should also be a very high priority.
Below we show a few examples of these attacks, summarize known countermeasures
and introduce a new method."
