TechNadu🚨 Florida’s new bill (SB 868) demands encryption backdoors for minors’ social media—sparking major backlash.Critics say it weakens privacy for everyone, not just kids. EFF calls it “dangerous and dumb.”Encryption keeps your data safe. This bill could open the floodgates to breaches and abuse.🔗 Read more: <a href="https://www.technadu.com/floridas-proposed-encryption-backdoor-bill-for-minors-faces-industry-backlash/587071/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.technadu.com/floridas-proposed-encryption-backdoor-bill-for-minors-faces-industry-backlash/587071/</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/PrivacyMatters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PrivacyMatters</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Encryption" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Encryption</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/FloridaBill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FloridaBill</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/EFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EFF</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cybersecurity</a>

Efani🔐 Android just got a quiet but powerful security upgrade: automatic reboots after 3 days of device inactivity.Google has rolled out a new feature via Google Play Services: if an Android device remains locked for 3 consecutive days, it will now automatically reboot.Why this matters: Rebooting puts the phone back into the "Before First Unlock" state — where data remains fully encrypted and inaccessible without the passcode. This makes it significantly harder for anyone trying to extract sensitive data using forensic tools like Cellebrite or Magnet.Apple introduced a similar feature last year, signaling a broader trend: both ecosystems are reinforcing protections against post-unlock data extraction, often used by law enforcement or threat actors.This feature:- Reduces exposure time after a phone is seized or stolen - Restores full disk encryption status automatically - Adds a layer of passive defense even if users don’t act📱 At <a href="https://infosec.exchange/@Efani" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Efani</a>, we advocate for security that works even when you’re not paying attention. Automatic reboots after periods of inactivity are a subtle but smart move — one that helps prevent surveillance, data harvesting, and unauthorized access.It’s not just about convenience anymore. It’s about digital self-defense by default.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/MobileSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MobileSecurity</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Android</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Encryption" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Encryption</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Privacy</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/EfaniSecure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EfaniSecure</a>

OTX BotHelloKitty Ransomware ResurfacedThe HelloKitty ransomware group, active since late 2020, has resurfaced with new variants in 2024 and potentially 2025. Originally forking from DeathRansom, HelloKitty targets Windows and Linux environments, appending .CRYPTED, .CRYPT, or .KITTY extensions to encrypted files. The group has used multiple TOR domains for negotiations and has been linked to high-profile attacks, including CD Projekt Red. Analysis reveals potential connections to China, despite earlier attributions to Ukraine. The ransomware employs sophisticated encryption techniques, including RSA-2048 and AES. Recent samples show evolving tactics, with increased focus on system discovery and process termination. HelloKitty has also been utilized by other threat actors, including Vice Society and Lapsus$. The group's continued activity and adaptations suggest ongoing relevance in the ransomware landscape.Pulse ID: 67feb4ff5c2dd0fabe7255e9 Pulse Link: <a href="https://otx.alienvault.com/pulse/67feb4ff5c2dd0fabe7255e9" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://otx.alienvault.com/pulse/67feb4ff5c2dd0fabe7255e9</a> Pulse Author: AlienVault Created: 2025-04-15 19:35:27Be advised, this data is unverified and should be considered preliminary.

As usual there's a lot of misunderstanding and little discussion of a <a href="https://tooting.ch/tags/ThreatModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThreatModel</a> when giving recommendations. If the private key is backed up with Apple or Google from your phone, then your messages may as well not be encrypted 🙈 I've again seen this indirectly with contacts changing phones and their keys are the same as on their old device. Due to automatic backups I guess.

renesatI've created my first GUI in Rust.

I had to tweak paper-age a bit, but now you can use it in the browser using <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/WASM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WASM</a>.
