GIMF Releases Islamic Encryption Program

Via memri.org -

On January 1, 2007 the Global Islamic Media Front (GIMF) announced the imminent release of new computer software called "Mujahideen Secret." According to the advertisement for the software (see below), it is "the first Islamic computer program for secure exchange [of information] on the Internet," and it provides users with "the five best encryption algorithms, and with symmetrical encryption keys (256 bit), asymmetrical encryption keys (2048 bit) and data compression [tools]."

Props to my friend Fergie for telling me about this one..

---------------------------------------

GIMF is a known media release point for al-Qaeda videos. However, for the last couple of years most of the new stuff is being released by al-Sahab.

The production quality of al-Sahab videos is much better than those from GIMF I have seen. Most provide english subtitles now...

Anyways, just today GIMF released another message directed at the American people. Wishing us a Year of Death.
