Hackers Sought a Backdoor in High-Tech Safes – Now Can Open Them in Seconds

Human nature is a huge part of the problem here:

> research on the higher-end version of the two kinds of Securam lock used on Liberty Safe products revealed something more intriguing. The locks have a reset method documented in their manual, intended in theory for use by locksmiths helping safe owners who have forgotten their unlock code.

Most people want an "absolutely uncrackable" lock, safe, coin wallet, encryption algo, or whatever - until they manage to lose their combination/key/password. Then, they suddenly want an E-Z-Open back door.

Companies that want to stay in business all understand the "please tell me a bunch of lies about it being unbreakable" customer psychology of this market.
