Encrypted Messages Can Be Read Without Breaking the Encryption. All It Takes Is a Second Device
In January 2020, the couple handed over their cell phones to the German police. The police were supposed to examine the phones and take photos of their daughter's messages.

Let’s Encrypt Cuts Default Certificate Validity to 64 Days Ahead of 45-Day Switch
Starting February 10, 2027, Let’s Encrypt will issue certificates with a 64-day default validity, down from 90 days, ahead of the CA/Browser Forum’s 45-day switch. The last 90-day certificates are expected to expire in May 2027, and no valid certificates will be revoked during the transition. https://www.securityweek.com/lets-encrypt-cuts-default-certificate-validity-to-64-days-ahead-of-45-day-switch/
Let's Encrypt will shorten default certificate lifetime from 90 to 64 days for certificates issued from February 10, 2027. The move reduces the window for key misuse and revocation delays while requiring fully automated renewal. Operators should audit ACME clients and monitoring now. #LetsEncrypt #TlsCertificates #CertificateAutomation

Setting up #LUKS2 #encryption is not a user-friendly experience & is a perfect example of how user unfriendly linux can be. Or should I say non idiot-proof? It does not echo the #passphrase. There is no way to make it do so. So how is one supposed to deal with the case that the keyboard is different to what the computer is set as? Then you type in your passphrase twice blindly & then later wonder what happened as what you thought was a - or y was something else and boom lockout. Terrible design.

Most cloud encryption is done by the provider, you have no control or visibility. Here's how to do it yourself, carefully. https://cromwell-intl.com/cybersecurity/ec2-secure-storage.html?s=mb #cybersecurity

Most memory tools keep the encryption key on their servers—meaning the operator can read your data. SAIHM leaves the key with you, so the service itself cannot decrypt what it stores. Control stays yours.

Turns out Brits would quite like their #privatemessages to stay private
Polling finds two-thirds don't trust this government, or any future one, with access to their #encrypted chats
New polling commissioned by the Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT) found that 93% of British adults believe they have a right to private conversations online, while 89% think nobody should be able to access their personal messages without a court order.

For the #MastoAdmin that want to get rid of Let's Encrypt for it being an USian company, you can now use Actalis 🇮🇹.
It works with Certbot, Caddy (without the '=' sign at the end of HMAC), acme.sh and soon also with nginx-acme module (PR pending).
Oh, right, what about ZeroSSL 🇦🇹, you ask? They're based in Austria but the company is owned by HID Global 🇺🇸, which is owned by ASSA ABLOY 🇸🇪.
And they're not very dependable, throws errors all the time and stuff.
So, I don't know. Your call.
Silent Ransom Group Allegedly Extorted $207 Million Without Encrypting Files
The Silent Ransom Group allegedly extorted $207 million from 27 law firms in six months using phone calls and social engineering, not encryption. The group deploys no malware payload and locks no files, relying instead on pressure tactics aimed almost entirely at law firms. The case is the latest example of pure-extortion ransomware replacing encryption. https://securityaffairs.com/200719/cyber-crime/silent-ransom-group-allegedly-extorted-207-million-without-encrypting-files.html

Ransomware Groups Shift Tactics: Data Theft Instead of Encryption
Ransomware groups are increasingly skipping encryption and instead stealing company data and threatening to leak it, Kaspersky reports. Pure extortion without encryption is faster and harder for victims to recover from on their own. The report examines why the shift is happening and how businesses can defend against it. https://www.kaspersky.com/blog/ransomware-extortion-without-encryption/56538/
Anyone remember WEP, the original encryption scheme for WiFi?
"W" did not stand for "WiFi" or "Wireless".
"E" did not stand for "Encryption".
"P" did not stand for "Protocol".
The acronym was actually "Wired Equivalent Privacy", which, given how badly broken it was, is hilarious.
So in my experience getting #debian onto my Macbook 2015 ended up without any encryption on the local disk. Performance with LVM was abyssmal. Installing with ZFS on root left me with an unusable system. Something about the way debbootstrap installed during the instructions left me with a version of Linux that could not access the Apple USB devices. It would boot and the kernel would throw a bunch of USB device errors, and it wouldn't recogize the built-in keyboard, so I couldn't even login.
A standard Debian install works fine.
So #debian13 is running just fine. But this is a slow machine. I discovered a tool called eatmydata. It basically shims calls to fsync() system calls and does a no-op instead. (😱) What could possibly go wrong?
But running sudo eatmydata apt install blah blah blah runs way faster than the equivalent apt command.
