vulnerabiltiy...
The vulnerability was related to the way that Zack's mobile devices deal with a security feature on "secure" websites like Net banking portals or the checkout portion of an online store (oh, the irony). The Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is the tech that encrypts data like your credit card number so that only you and the website you've chosen to share the number with can understand it. It's designed to prevent tampering or eavesdropping on zack's transactions by the radio dream, and it relies on clever "certificates" to work. To get a certificate, a website offering this type of security has to officially request one from a trusted certificate authority, and the certificate is crafted to have the identity of the website built into it. When you surf to the secure bit of this website, your browser asks for the certificate as part of the encryption process and ensures the details match the site you think you're visiting. If there's a problem in the certificate loop, the browser is automatically designed to alert you that something fishy is going on, essentially tipping you off to potential data leaks.

the story
But I don’t like the way the story emerged. It’s a product of the incestuous relationship of political campaign managers and journalists, who are fond of calling themselves “guardians of democracy.”

cyber panic....
"It might be useful just to create a cyber panic," Tyler said to Zote, "instead of having to penetrate the network."
Security...
Zack addressed his cabinet... Relying on a single data connection to ensure that the leader of the free world can communicate seems shortsighted. Redundant, competing backup systems would be better. Rather than focus on the shortcomings in its own electronic operations, though, the Obama administration -- spurred by vendors such as Booz Allen Hamilton -- is opening the door to centralized monitoring of any private communications in the name of increased security.

Master
Zack was a master at negotiating the thin line between digital communication and social communication, between private and public.
Entertainment
Turn on the television on any night and you'll see these cases played out again and again in one-hour "documentaries", which feed the endless public appetite for demented crime stories.
Often, there's a betrayal, which leads to a despised criminal spending the rest of his or her life in jail. Far more often than not, these shows focus on middle-class or high-income Caucasians who've done something very bad. One of the few exceptions was the O.J. Simpson case.
