How do you encrypt the hard drives? I wouldn't trust some keys that had been lying around on an unencrypted hard drive for 1,2,10 years!

  If I was using one-time-pads I'd probably be using them because I didn't trust encryption, so "unencrypted" wouldn't matter here. In real-world implementations I think the security is probably based around a large number of men with guns.

    Exactly, men with guns secure the one time pad. The data sent using that pad is secure. Nit: I would consider one time pad to be a method of encryption.

      Nit: I would consider one time pad to be a method of encryption. Ah, true. But the encryption algorithm is much simpler to implement than most :-)

  You don't get it at all.
