ted and curlRAT: North Korean Linux Surveillance Toolkit Hiding Inside HAProxy

4+ day, 3+ hour ago   (88+ words) An attacker assessed with medium confidence to be DPRK-aligned logged SSH passwords and used the ted backdoor—embedded as an internal filter into HAProxy 2.8.12—alongside curlRAT to conceal the selective interception, exfiltration, and tampering of web traffic. Inference: The following…...

VeraCrypt Done Right: The Practical Guide That Prevents Lockouts, Data Loss, and False Confidence

5+ day, 1+ hour ago   (1244+ words) VeraCrypt is easy to use badly. You can choose an unnecessarily complicated cipher cascade, forget a... Tagged with security, privacy, encryption, tutorial....

Content Moderation That Never Sees Your Private Messages

1+ week, 3+ day ago   (548+ words) Most moderation systems claim they respect private messages. Almost none of them actually do, because the model still sees them. They run every message through a classifier first, then decide what to do with the result. The privacy boundary, if…...

How End-to-End Encryption Protects Private Crypto Keys

1+ week, 3+ day ago   (654+ words) That's the entire point of end-to-end encryption applied to private keys: the raw key material never travels in a form anyone else can read, not even the service relaying it. For anyone managing cryptocurrency wallets, understanding how end-to-end encryption protects…...

TPM Requirements for Post-Quantum Cryptography Readiness

2+ week, 4+ day ago   (867+ words) The Trusted Computing Group has established a new set of requirements to help organizations determine if Trusted Platform Modules are prepared for the era of post-quantum cryptography. This guidance provides a technical benchmark for evaluating whether hardware vendors can protect…...

Post Quantum TLS: What Hybrid Key Exchange Actually Changes

3+ week, 6+ day ago   (1558+ words) Post quantum cryptography is no longer something security teams can leave entirely to research departments. NIST finalized ML-KEM as a post quantum key encapsulation mechanism in 2024, and the IETF is actively standardizing hybrid key agreement for TLS 1.3. The practical transition…...

One Ciphertext, Two Valid Plaintexts: Why AEAD Needs Key Commitment

4+ week, 1+ day ago   (718+ words) Modern encryption is almost always AEAD: authenticated encryption with associated data. AES-GCM and ChaCha20-Poly1305 are the two you meet everywhere, in TLS, in disk encryption, in message formats, in cloud key management. They give you confidentiality plus an authentication tag, and…...
