<\/p>\nThe sh*t has hit the fan!<\/p>\n

We came out in the open about research we conducted on a couple of The juicy part: about the keys \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u00a6. If you read Dutch law about the I was heavily disappointed when I finally got my hands on these keys.<\/p>\n Just a very, very, simple four lever key and no use of anti-manipulation All three Nedap voting computers we examined came with a sets of Getting your hands on that key is simple.

\nNedap ES3B voting computers we got our hand on. Behind the scenes we
\nhave been working hard for the last five weeks to reverse engineer and
\nhack these devices. It was quite a project, but since of yesterday the
\nworld knows about it. A whitepaper<\/a> is available online for you to read
\nour conclusions. And besides that we also decided to trow all Nedap
\nsoftware, rom dumps and internal documentation online<\/a>. Just for the
\npublic to see what it is they are voting on….<\/p>\n
\nrequirements concerning voting they mention several times the
\nimportance of the voting computers key. The head of the ticket office
\nmust carry this key with him at all times, and when the elections
\nclose it has to be stored in a sealed envelope. When Nedap learned we
\nwhere after their device they send out an emergency letter to each
\nmunicipality to store the keys to these voting computers in a safe.<\/p>\n
\nor anti-copy technology. It was no problem to have the key copied in
\nthe first lock shop I entered. Anyone with five minutes of instruction
\n(or less) could learn how to pick or bypass this lock.<\/p>\n![\"nedap](\"http:\/\/blackbag.toool.nl\/images\/nedap-key.jpg\" "\\"nedap")

\nidentical keys. So all keys where the same, and one of these keys could
\noperate all these computers. We can safely assume one key can operate
\nall 8.000 Nedap voting computers in use in the Netherlands. Other
\nproof of this claim is that the keys are nickled over, meaning they
\nwere mass-produced with the cuts already made. Something you only do
\nwhen you make large batches.<\/p>\n
\nFor just one euro you can order the key from multiple different online
\nsources. All you have to do is google for ‘C&K’ and key number ‘A126’<\/a>.
\nLooking at the datasheet of this key you can learn its part number is
\n115140126. We ordered 100 and gave each and every journalist a
\npersonal Nedap voting computer key at the press conference we held
\nthis morning. As if you needed keys for locks like this…<\/p>\n
