Up north the Iraqi army “abandoned” US-supplied equipment.
Question for a military radio man:
1. Does that mean that ISIS has their hands on our encrypted radio equipment?
2. If true, or possible, what does that mean for any US personnel in Iraq?
1.)Possible that they have at least that days code fill.
2.)change code fill ASAP
If true, or possible, what does that mean for any US personnel in Iraq?
US personnel use a different crypto key from the Iraqis. The Iraqis will likely be issued a new key for their radios which limits the amount of eavesdropping ISIS can do.
