The secret ingredient is evol!

So this week we talked about computer security and how things can be hidden with cryptography or stenography (which im happy to say i spelled right the first try). Cryptography is when the message is encoded and can only be decoded with the proper key and stenography is when a message is hidden within something else, like a message in a picture. the recipe ipod would use cryptography to encrypt all of the recipes. Users would be able to give other users a limited time access, or life time access to recipes. I know on the Zune you could "lend" someone a song for three days, and the limited access would be like that. That way the recipes that you want to keep in the family can be protected. In addition to that all the recipes that users can buy off of the recipe ipod application would also be encrypt so that users can not just share the file with anyone.
