To accomplish this, we use a tool called Seedminer to calculate the data encryption key (movable.sed) for your device, which we can then use to create a custom save file or DSiWare backup to further exploit your device. If this key were completely random, the encryption key would be impossible to break on current computing hardware. Fortunately, the first half of the key (`movable_part1.sed`) is actually mathematically related to your device's Friend Code, allowing us to break the encryption.
