Are you encrypting now Gabby

build a threat model and plan around it. for example, look into encrypting your shit and the laws around it (i.e. what you should do if the law compells you to give up the password)

We handle your data with the utmost care (said the salesman).

Our system checks redundant copies for errors before encrypting with 16,384-bit RSA.

Our one-time optical medium has a life expectancy of 1,000+ years.

We then… um… #mail it to our warehouse by the docks.

i don't know if their excuse for encrypting their radio is still "we can't use the regular radio because antifa supersoldiers might follow us around" and i don't care. you're the police. you're armed to the gills. you own tanks. figure out another way to be safe

Fiber with plus geosynchronous satellite backup, not starlink, plus maybe route packets over the internet. Your going to be encrypting everything with presumably military grade encryption regardless.

The solution is likely not replacing one network with another, but defense in depth.

And the online safety act has made things 100x harder for law enforcement as it means every porn watcher with a brain is now encrypting their internet traffic.

So how do you make private accounts? How do you make your note on the board so only X people can see it? One of the only ways would be is if you add a lockbox to the bulletin board (by encrypting posts) that all your posts go into. But how you have another problem.

So the reason all those dozens of Japanese companies got clients info stolen is... they weren't encrypting the stored personnel information? 🥴🥴🥴
Tell me that's not true. When I was building a website as a hobby, that was literally a one parameter option in the DB API library....

Eliminating front-running by encrypting balances changes the game for execution quality, but it shifts the information asymmetry directly to validator behavior instead.

Hopefully when Brand is sentenced to a long stretch in prisony wisony, his incomprehensible, pro-rapist groupies will sleaze back into encrypting their hard drives & kissing their Trump/Farage pin-ups

Sick of the female victim blaming morons who have infected the internet like syphilis

#telegram is re-inventing #Webxdc mini-apps, but poorly: its new HTML widget, attached to a message, only talks to a bot registered with Telegram's centralized, non-encrypting infra. https://core.telegram.org/bots/api-changelog#november-9-2026

With #deltachat anyone can add mini-apps ("zip" […]

The locker is Go with ChaCha20 and ECDH. Before encrypting it adds Defender exclusions, clears logs with wevtutil, deletes shadow copies with vssadmin and wmic, turns off the firewall, and spreads with PsExec and GPO changes.

Citrus ransomware group breaks in via contractors and poses as security software

Kaspersky says a newly documented ransomware group, Citrus, signs in with stolen contractor logins, uses AI-written scripts, hides its network traffic and turns off defenses before encrypting systems.

🏴 Dark Project is a newly emerged ransomware leak operation active as of August 2026. The group utilizes a double extortion model (stealing sensitive data before encrypting local systems and threatening to leak it on their dark web portal).

On flash there's a bootloader and user firmware. The update file is basically a wrapper for the user firmware, encrypting the data and prepending a separate header. Technically non-encrypted updates are supported, but the flag for it is checked and enforced.

The most unsettling cyberattack I've come across in months didn't steal a single file.

France's national blood agency says hackers got into the network running its cold rooms — the ones holding donations. Culprit still unknown.

Twenty years of security budgets went to encrypting databases. The…

A 64-byte FIX message only has 40 bytes that change. Encrypting all 64 is waste.

NSCrypt authenticates the fixed fields, encrypts the rest: 2.74x OpenSSL, 4.41x per-byte. NTT for Kyber: 2.67x.

The plaintiffs are arguing: if Apple dictates the software on your phone, where the biometrics get stored, and can change that software at will, then from a legal perspective they "control" your phone. Encrypting the biometrics is irrelevant, because they could have decided not to encrypt as well.

Black Basta waits for a mouse movement before encrypting. Akira steals private information from local browsers.

Moving to Boston, "Donald" graduated from Harvard and networked with top US policymakers—secretly encrypting political and economic intel for Moscow.

To their neighbors and their own sons, they were the ultimate North American upper-middle-class family.

The sequel almost matters more than the leak. After Le Monde reported those nightly transfers in 2018, the AU ripped out the Chinese-supplied servers and started encrypting its traffic. Beijing called the story absurd — then paid for the Africa CDC headquarters in the same city, opened in 2023.

Google's GOTO rollout made search scraping harder. Brave says the traffic shifted to its independent index—and now Brave is encrypting result links using a privacy-preserving scheme. For SEO and GEO teams, the immediate risk is data quality, not a new ranking factor. (1/2)
