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.

The recording device's contents remain encrypted and sealed. A key question for the Oct. 19 detention hearing: what conversations, if any, were actually captured? The charges hinge on intercepting communications, but authorities have not disclosed what the recorder obtained. https://www.implicator.ai/openai-engineer-charged-recording-device-conference-room/ #AI #Security #Courts

"Privacy's Defenders Podcast: No Privacy Without Encryption"
"Encryption converts readable data into unreadable gibberish to protect our privacy and security. When we communicate online today – from your personal emails and DMs to secure international commerce – we usually do so with encryption."

your messages are end-to-end encrypted.
great!
now let's talk about the other places where platforms, cloud providers, advertisers, data brokers, cybercriminals, and governments may still get a crack at your data.
encryption protects data in transit.
privacy is a bit bigger than that.

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.

An OpenAI engineer faces federal charges for allegedly hiding an encrypted recording device in the company's executive conference room. The device was found Sept. 30 behind a television. OpenAI says there's no evidence of data theft, but prosecutors describe the case as a national security matter. https://www.implicator.ai/openai-engineer-charged-recording-device-conference-room/ #AI #Security #Technology

This is why user control over data and encryption in the smart home is so important. If you're doing anything in the smart home, Apple Home is the way to go or some complex complicated setup.
I wouldn't trust just any device in my home and connect it to my network.

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

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
debbootstrapinstalled 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 tofsync()system calls and does a no-op instead. (😱) What could possibly go wrong?But running
sudo eatmydata apt install blah blah blahruns way faster than the equivalentaptcommand.It has breathed new life into this laptop.
