📸🔒 How can you share photos if they are end-to-end encrypted?

We get that question a lot, so we’ve published a deep dive into how sharing works in zeitkapsl, why even we as the provider can’t open your links, and how the secret stays only on your device.

»Phishing Simulationen (und SEG) sind weitgehend nutzlos:
Es gibt Firmen, die intern ihre Mitarbeiter einer Phishing-Schulung mit simulierten Angriffen unterziehen. In einer #Studie wurde nun belegt, dass diese #Phishing-Simulationen weitgehend nutzlos sind. Aber auch #Secure Email Gateways können Phishing-Mails nicht aufhalten.«

Hach ja, wenn auch in Firmen gewisse #EMail services genutzt werden und ua zB #PGP als zu kompliziert angesehen wird, ja dann.

I’m working towards something for #secure / #private / #simple #P2P #filetransfer. It isnt as “simple” as it could be, im still working on it, but ive got it down to:

Zero-installation as a #PWA

Zero-registration by using local-only storage

#P2P-authentication using #WebCryptoAPI

Fast #datatransfer using #WebRTC, #syncthing, #croc, #sphynctershare and countless others. the key difference in my approach is that its a #webapp thats ready to go without any "real" setup process. you just need a browser.

I’m aware there are things like #SFTP and several other established protocols and tools. I started doing this because I was learning about #WebRTC and it seems suprisingly capable. This isnt ready to replace any existing apps or services.

(Note: I know you guys are typically interested in #opensource code. this project is a spin-off from a bigger project: github.com/positive-intentions)

Let me know what you think about the app, features and experience you would expect from a tool like this.

SUPER IMPORTANT NOTES TO PREVENT MISLEADING:

These projects are not ready to replace any existing apps or services.

These projects are not peer-reviewed or security audited.

The chat-app is #opensource for transparency (as linked above)... but the file-app is not open souce at all (especially spicy when not reviewed or audited.).

All projects behind positive-intentions are provided for testing and demo purposes only.

Would folks be interested in a writeup with working scripts for 100% locally #selfhosted #LanguageTool Desktop (#macOS, #Linux should work too) with full grammar checking and sentence rewriting capabilities, taking advantage of the open source LT server, #ollama, and #mitmproxy or #Proxyman ?

The upshot is #private #secure #grammarcheck with #LLM rewrites, like a secure self-hosted alternative to #Grammarly without sharing out every word you type. Awfully #hacky, but it works... #infosec

Can't help to wonder why does #Signal push their #smartphone version so hard? Smartphones are the least #secure #platforms for personal messaging, with a long and ugly track record of #privacy #violations, however it's very hard to register, install or use Signal without using a smartphone. Even if the #desktop #application is used, it requires constantly going back and forth to the smartphone version. That's weird for a privacy oriented service. Is there something fishy going on under the hood?

🌘 Secure Boot 憑證輪替:真實存在但不太可能造成影響
➤ 別擔心,你的 Linux 系統不會因此「開天窗」
mjg59.dreamwidth.org/72892.html
本文探討了 Secure Boot 的憑證輪替機制,並澄清了關於 Linux 系統可能因微軟憑證過期而無法啟動的誤解。作者解釋了 Secure Boot 的工作原理,指出現有的系統設計實際上並未嚴格執行憑證到期日,因此即使憑證過期,系統仍可正常運作。文章進一步說明瞭未來憑證輪替的技術細節,以及對使用者實際影響的可能性,強調了此情況對絕大多數使用者而言並不會構成嚴重的啟動問題。
+ 原來我一直誤解了 Secure Boot 的運作方式,這篇文章解釋得很清楚,讓我鬆了一口氣。
+ 感謝作者的詳細說明,釐清了關於憑證過期的疑慮。實際操作細節很有參考價值。
