The technique that protects the Conclave’s privacy
In 2005, the cell The phones were first banned during Conclave, the process that the new Catholic Church chooses. Twenty years later, after Pope Francis’ death, the election process is in progress again. Authorities have two priorities: to protect the integrity of those who attend the meeting and ensure that it is confidential (under the punishment of excommunication and imprisonment) until the final decision is made.
By 2025, the gendarmerie, which protects the Vatican city, faces unprecedented challenges compared to other results. Including artificial information systems, drones, military satellites, microscopic microphones, an epidemic of inaccurate information, and the world is permanently interconnected through social media.
The conference is scheduled to take place approximately 20 days after the Pope’s death. The Vatican and the Holy Sacred are preparing for the entry of cardinals, which will vote for the next Catholic leader. Emergency and control institutions also work with advanced technology. So far, they have not shared details of their security arrangements, but they are not inexperienced in protecting the integrity of prominent faces in the face of today’s technological dangers.
In fact, Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s 2013 election – Pope Francis’ real name – as an excellent pontiff offers signs of strict security strategies that are presented as a result.
Signal jam and check device
The Vatican has access to the Internet, but there will be signals in the areas where the cardinals live and vote for the new pop. This technology prevents the communication of two devices through radio frequency interference. The headquarters becomes an electronic refuge. Therefore, if one succeeds in introducing a microphone, telephone or computer, he will not be able to transfer information.
However, the possibility of administrative staff or self -introduction of technology is remotely. Authorities review every day in search of microphones or unauthorized cameras, each authorized participant and participants.
Privacy Movie in Windows
Contemporary satellites are able to take pictures of people’s faces of space, while AI can interpret lip movements. However, since there is currently no technology to see the walls with such high resolution, the best strategy against espionage in Conclave is to close doors and windows.
During the meetings and in sleeping neighborhoods, voters are not allowed to look abroad. In addition, before the Cardinals arrive, the Vatican staff put the matte film on Windows so that no journalist, satellite or drone can take pictures of the interior.
Locked Vatican
The Vatican covers only 0.44 square kilometers. This is the smallest nation in the world. By 2018, it had 650 cameras that monitored its streets from an underground command center. In addition, the Vatican Gendarmerie, which acts as a conventional police force, and the Swiss guard of penalties, which acts as an army, is located inside the territory. While the photos appear to have antique clothes and carry Halburred, the second group has highly trained personnel with heavy weapons such as machine guns, rifles and explosives.
200,000 people are expected to be present in the small town of Pope Francis after determining the name of Pope Francis.
