The portability of Ada by means of its packages is one of the great
advantages to be gained from using it as a language for encryption.
The concept of Mutual database Technology being promoted by me
completely obviates the key distribution problem that has soaked up so
much wasted effort by cryptographers in the past 40 years. That
wasted effort evolved from the use of encapsulation cryptography that
required keys to be distributed between entities (Simon Singh “The
Code Book”). It is made redundant now by a one-off secure delivery of
a database during the setting up of a secure crypto scheme that even
if it means using a trusted live courier to do this the expense is
justified by the fact of it being a once in a lifetime occurrence i.e.
once in the lifetime of the secure loop.

Although the problem of key distribution is overcome there is still a
need for global network construction that involves sending database
components like arrays of integers around the globe to set up
communications loops between entities. The packages that comprise a
mutual database need to be customised and then sent to the entities of
new loops.

Using Ada packages greatly facilitates this by enabling non-specialist
operatives to prepare them off-line, create libraries, sent packages
by unsecured email keep management records etc.

The equivalent containers of other languages are not nearly as
accommodating in that respect - adacrypt
