Google SSL Beta
Friday, August 13, 2010
Google has just started a beta for a new upgrade to their search engine protocols, and there’s some good news and some bad news. The good news is that they are creating a real-time encryption between yourself and Google when you input search data. This means that anybody trying to monitor your activity while on Google foe spam marketing, spyware, or even more nefarious purposes is going to have one heck of a time trying to break into your data. Right now, it is basically impossible to break an encryption fast enough to read the data from an encrypted datastream in real time. If the data is deleted after the exchange of information is over, there’s pretty much no way to steal that information ever; which brings me to the bad news. They still aren’t deleting the data, which makes this security measure basically meaningless.
Yeah yeah, no one will ever be able to break into your Google searches while you are making them. That’s all well and good if you happen to have a super-hacker stalker who’s really interested in blackmailing you with your naughty search parameters. Even in that extremely unlikely case, these new security measures don’t really do that much because he/she could always just get the information from Google later. Yes they’re Google, and they have a team of their own super hackers... I mean network security specialist, but Google does have a reputation for caving when important people lean on them for personal search records. At least half-way there is better than nothing at all. Maybe in another 10 years they’ll go the extra distance.
