#telegram now #leaking #information to the #authorities in #germany - so much for #encryption ! https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/15.. Good job I switched to #jabber and #xmpp for my more #secure #sensitive stuff!
#ibm #eagle has 127 #qubits for their #quantum #computing ! https://hackaday.com/2022/02/08/ibm-eagl.. Apparently they believe they have a path to over 1000 #qubits using a 3D #package ... #encryption better watch out!
#disgusting new #campaign #funded by the #uk #government trying to get #encryption #banned on the account of #protecting #children https://noplacetohide.org.uk/ The #problem is, in reality, this would actually lead to *more* children being at harm. *Never* #trust #data in #storage or #transit - don't even trust yourself!
The #scuttlebutt #protocol will be well worth a read when #designing the new #deadsocial #platform https://ssbc.github.io/scuttlebutt-proto.. The part about #keypair #encryption is of specific interest. What I am looking to do will essentially be a #hybrid of this and super old #technology ...
Interesting, apparently #china 's #ccp have #banned #strong #foreign #encryption #algorithms greater than 256 bits: https://sanctionsnews.bakermckenzie.com/.. Apparently they instead replace these with the likes of SM1, SM2, SM3, SM4, etc - which have possibly have a #backdoor in their #dualkey .

It's really a #shame that the #progress on the #pinecube has been so slow. No #update on a the #pinetab - I guess they #forgot they even have it as a #product / #project ? Anyway, looking forward to 2022!Regarding #pine 's latest #update https://www.pine64.org/2021/12/15/decemb.. For the #pinephone #modem #malware I wonder whether they couldn't pick up an active #attack by having a #markovmodel pick up on known #attack #sequences as a #temporary #workaround ... Tbe #pinedio looks interesting, even in the same #formfactor as the M5 #stack I #purchased recently. Maybe I will be able to #port my #software #efforts when it comes around! It's a shame it so far only supports #lora ...
#encryption from one place to another should really not be this tough: https://matrix.org/blog/2021/09/13/vulne.. It should not be possible to *read* #encrypted #matrix #messages - #replay #attacks ? Sure. #information #leaking ? Sure. Message #blocking ? Sure. But *never* should it be possible to read the #plaintext message...
And there you have it folks, the #nsa #developed and then #pressured #networking #companies ( #juniper ) to put a #dualec #encryption #backdoor into their #firmware https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/14334.. How many times to do I have to say this? *Any backdoor you put in for yourself, can be easily #exploited by your enemy!* Sure, you covered the side-entrance into the castle with a bush, but it *will* eventually be discovered and when it is, you better not sleep easy.

Ouch, seems quite 'easy' for a #hacker to gain access to a company #network if they are so inclined with the use of a #stolen #laptop https://dolosgroup.io/blog/2021/7/9/from.. Apparently the most effective defence against this is an #encrypted #drive ... More needs to be done in general to defend against such attacks, but #governments seem to be entirely against #encryption for exactly the reason that it makes these devices harder to #hack !
The #tpm #module that the new #windows 11 requires that you have seems like a super pain in the arse: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RW2zHvVO.. It essentially moves the #encryption problem around and I believe will just result to making #laptops and other #portable #devices be more #closedsource ... For example, tricking the #tpm into thinking it is running on a specific #configuration just moves the #goalposts towards #stateactors to hack into machines. A better solution is still required.
