Security by obscurity fails again
The secret codes used by Europe's Galileo navigation satellite have been broken by researchers at Cornell University.…
A team from Cornell's Global Positioning System Laboratory succeeded in cracking so-called pseudo random number (PRN) codes of Europe's first global navigation satellite, despite attempts to keep the data under wraps. The development means "free access" for consumers who use navigation devices that would need PRNs to access satellite data from Galileo, according to the team from Cornell.
