Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates.

Good work, team! The Ring agent you captured is suspected to have stolen critical information identifying many of our agents around the world.

General Beckman


It's critical that this information be recovered as quickly as possible. We intercepted this coded message, sent just before the agent was captured, that may lead us to the stolen data.

Analysis of a captured Ring communications device leads us to believe that the message was encrypted by XOR'ing it with a key stored on the device you captured.

Ring Phone

Normally, we would have you send the device to the NSA for analysis, but time is of the essence. Mr. Bartowski has shown some ability to perform some - unauthorized - hacking of these devices in the past. Chuck, we need you to recover the key from the Ring Phone, and decode the message. Colonel Casey and Agent Walker will then recover the data. Any questions?

Chuck


No problem, General. It sounds like a children's tv character could have come up with a better way of encrypting these messages!
