Iran Builds a Supercomputer

Iran Builds a Supercomputer

build such a device, the Iranians have managed to get their hands on super-strength CPUs, either through producing or buying such an advanced technology.‏

A system analyst interviewed by Channel 2 said a supercomputer could help Iran analyze information extremely quickly and use sophisticated encrypting software which requires high-processing power only available from such a machine.‏

The Iranian supercomputer is expected to make the job of intelligence communities worldwide much harder and the custom-written encryption algorithms might slow them down critically in crucial times.‏

The significance of Tehran`s technological achievement is that it could retard the task of retrieving intelligence on military actions such as trajectories or targets of Iranian missiles.‏

Iran previously owned encrypting software sold to it by Switzerland, but the US managed to hack into the Swiss software. Consequently, Tehran decided to invest in a domestic encryption program.‏

Iran has made giant achievements in the field of science and technology during the last few years.‏
