Hatzoloh of Rockland

[GTR8000]

As of Sunday, June 12th at 1000 hrs, Hatzoloh of Rockland now operates primarily on the 700 MHz Rockland County Public Safety Communications System, using full-time encryption on their talkgroup. 159.885 is no longer their primary dispatch channel.

Why encryption on an EMS channel?

Why encryption on an EMS channel?

Because they want encryption.

 

[DaveNF2G]

Their lawyers probably told them that HIPAA requires it.

They have their reasons.

Their lawyers probably told them that HIPAA requires it.

And this is decidedly not one of them. :roll:

 

[sefrischling]

Just dispatch in Yiddish. Problem solved.

 

[trauma74]

The Hasidim are a very private group of people and they want to keep their affairs private, especially when it comes to medical emergencies. I support their choice to encrypt their communications.

 

[Priority-One]

Any word if Queens, Brooklyn or Manhattan will ever switch or go E?

 

[trauma74]

It is unknown if other branches of Hatzolah will switch over to a digital encrypted system. Hatzolah of Rockland is on the Rockland County system, which is specific for public safety agencies within the County of Rockland.

I can only speculate what motivated the encryption but if I said it I'd probably be banned

AES or ADP?

 

[GTR8000]

AES or ADP?

Does it really matter what algorithm they're using? Some things are best not publicized.

 

[sefrischling]

Rockland is AES

 

[GTR8000]

Rockland is AES

Oh yeah?

First....Unless you have direct knowledge of what they are using, I wouldn't post what you apparently think they may be using. Second, the type of encryption they are using shouldn't be discussed in a public forum. And third, regardless of what they are using its intent is to not be monitored and the decryption of encryption communications without authorization is a violation of federal law. So does is really matter if they are using ADP, DES, AES, etc.?

1) Rockland's system is set up with AES
2) Why does it matter if we discuss it in this forum? No one is going to be able to crack the encryption
3) Why does it matter? It doesn't, but if someone is curious, why not actually provide them with the answer?

Maybe it's DES-OFB???
