Lyrics

  1. Three states of matter...
  2. Three states of data...
  3. Coincidence? Absolutely.
  4. But we're running with it.
  5. Locked in the freezer, encrypted and chilled
  6. Sitting on a disk where it's frozen but billed
  7. A-E-S two-fifty-six, the cryogenic crypt
  8. Your data takes a nap and it doesn't get ripped
  9. It's not going anywhere, that's the whole point
  10. Ice doesn't wander, ice doesn't disjoint
  11. But thaw it without keys and you'll never get in...
  12. Cold storage, baby... let the thaw begin
  13. Phase change... incoming
  14. Watch the molecules move
  15. Three forms, one substance
  16. Data's got something to prove
  17. H-two-O, oh-oh-oh
  18. Ice is the rest, steam is the use, water's the flow
  19. H-two-O, oh-oh-oh
  20. Same data, different state, that's how it goes
  21. Rest is ice (frozen tight)
  22. Use is steam (running hot)
  23. Motion is water (and it's everywhere it's not)
  24. Down the pipe, through the wire, across the W-A-N
  25. T-L-S handshake before you turn it on
  26. The river's running fast, packets in the stream
  27. A man-in-the-middle is a packet-sniffer's dream
  28. Water finds a path — that's the trouble with motion
  29. Drop one drop unencrypted, you've poisoned the ocean
  30. So we wrap it, we tunnel it, we sign every byte...
  31. 'Cause water in the wild doesn't sleep through the night
  32. Phase change... incoming
  33. Watch the molecules move
  34. Three forms, one substance
  35. Data's got something to prove
  36. H-two-O, oh-oh-oh
  37. Ice is the rest, steam is the use, water's the flow
  38. H-two-O, oh-oh-oh
  39. Same data, different state, that's how it goes
  40. Now it's hot...
  41. Decrypted in memory, alive in the R-A-M
  42. The C-P-U's chewing, the process is jammed
  43. Steam is the trickiest, steam is the worst
  44. 'Cause a dump of the memory could make your whole day cursed
  45. Side-channel attacks, cold-boot, you name it
  46. Enclaves and T-E-Es try their best to contain it
  47. But steam wants to rise, steam wants to leak...
  48. A vapor of secrets just waiting to speak
  49. H-two-O, oh-oh-oh
  50. Ice is the rest, steam is the use, water's the flow
  51. H-two-O, oh-oh-oh
  52. Same data, different state, that's how it goes
  53. Rest is ice (lock it down)
  54. Use is steam (watch it close)
  55. Motion is water (sealed in tunnels coast to coast)
  56. Three states of matter...
  57. Three states of data...
  58. Protect them like the climate depends on it.
  59. Because, in a sense... it does.
