    The game is security isn’t it? No online means you must have physical access to some systems

      Sure, but forcing an entire country to go through physical handling of each and every request is crazy. I really don’t understand how they managed for so long.

        Do we know what the scale was? I would assume it’s only for the systems that are required to be air gapped.

          No, unfortunately. 🙂 They’re not talking about secure paths inside the office, they’re taking about having all their processes using the floppy disks. They have a common format which is proprietary and can only be made with a proprietary PC program and can only be submitted on floppy disks.
