By Processor Type I meant Processor Architecture. No point in hacking if the processor of the computer your hacking can't run anything of yours.And bruteforce attacks are actually still painfully tedious, even with ridiculous amounts of power behind them. Encryption methods and technology evolve just as fast as processor technology does, and it is possible, and has been done, to make unbreakable encryptions.And its not a issue of translations, its the issue of you being able to break into one of my most secure networks without lifting a finger.

Ah, I thought you meant different makes of processor, I was sitting their scratching my head lol

True enough, but we aren't talking an upgrade in technology here, not some upgrade of processors. This is a being which can upgrade its intelligence by building a new brain, by absorbing individuals into it. To date, no computer has outdone the human mind. The power of the mind is insane, if one could connect even a handful of brains together and operate them, they could put the power of computers to shame... And we're not even talking about superior intelligence in aliens or constructs. I do believe unbreakable encryptions are generally "unbreakable" in the terms that it is unfeasible for us to bother due to complexity and time, not that they are literally unbreakable... And if you were able to acquire the key, say the one inside your computers being used to decode the messages, then it would be solved instantly. I would like to point out an autistic guy from the UK broke into the pentagons top secret files searching for UFO evidence... These files were heavily encrypted and he was using a desktop computer.

Technically speaking, its possible that none of this matters as the collective intelligence outstrips the computers, we probably have the problem with a brute force attack that both our systems might crash from the massive amount of data that such a powerful collective intelligence would be trying to force through, only for it to resume when the systems are rebooted, subsequently crashing our systems again. It could very well become an annoying situation for all involved, until one of the systems inevitably gets completely toasted and has to be replaced
