"Trouble is, no one knows for sure yet precisely what the 32-character code means. Or at least no one at Cyber Command appears to know. Lt. Cmdr. Steve Curry, a spokesman, says "it's definitely the mission statement" of Cyber Command. "What part of the mission statement: That's what I'm waiting to find out on from the people who designed it."..."

It's just the MD5 hash of the mission statement. Put the following paragraph into an MD5 hash generator:

 

USCYBERCOM plans, coordinates, integrates, synchronizes and conducts activities to: direct the operations and defense of specified Department of Defense information networks and; prepare to, and when directed, conduct full spectrum military cyberspace operations in order to enable actions in all domains, ensure US/Allied freedom of action in cyberspace and deny the same to our adversaries.

Yeah.. They know that. And if you finished the article you'd know it failed and appears that only a portion of the statement is MD5... Which portion is the question.

And if you'd checked it yourself as opposed to listening to the yahoos commenting on the article' date=' you'd find that the MD5 hash of the phrase exactly as I posted it, is in fact the answer. :)[/quote']

 

If you put the code (not the language) into an MD5 decoder (not encoder), you get what AlHazred posted originally.
