Headline

(max. 9 words)

Complete loss of privacy - Europe is laging in cryptography

Description

(approx. 150 words)
Please describe the Wild Card (approx. 150 words)
Due to huge improvement of rough computing force the Chinese scientists are able to solve all the secret codes currently used in digital communinication. New cryptography methods are necessary, but European scientists are lagging in their development. The result is complete loos of privacy in digital communication which causes vaste economic demage and serious security threat.
