There are clues from Microsoft's latest moves on Windows 11 that reveal what Microsoft is really up to. Do you really believe Microsoft released features lik...
I know people have mixed opinions on Braxman but I don't see any huge leaps in logic here tbh... Thoughts?
3 letter agencies, governments in general and data hungry companies will continue searching for a way to bypass encryption. And just a reminder: direct access to the system (remote or physical) bypasses all kinds of encryption unless it's protected separately. Backdoors and kernel level anti-cheats ftw
Not really? If disks are encrypted good luck getting anything out of it. A remote access to a running machine? It's all laid there.
I didn't mean that. I meant if the hacker has access to the administrator (or just user in case with E2EE messengers) account, they can see and download anything, no matter how encrypted it is. The chips can do stuff as well but idk any proof of that tbh
Sure, side channel leakage if you can run locally.
Honestly, most machines have enough cores, that you could pin a process to a specific core giving it independent cache, and work around a lot of these side channel attacks. So you're encrypted end to end messenger would get an exclusive core. Kind of like how we do VM pinning nowadays
Eh, kind of. Remote Desktop with an admin account would be more useful than physical access to a locked computer. Because if Bitlocker is enabled, then all that matters is that you can sign into the computer. Use strong passwords, don’t open RDP to the WAN, lock your workstations when walking away, etc…
Even cloning the drive to crack later (historically, this was a popular choice if you had physical access) is pretty useless if you don’t have a user’s password.
Death of encryption?
They are rolling out forced turned-on-by-default BitLocker hard drive encryption for everyone using Windows 11. Including all those people who dont understand how it works and won't save their backup keys.
Microsoft is dumb but pretending they are trying to kill encryption is also dumb.
I suppose I meant to say "end to end encryption". It's no secret that it's been under attack from the top down for a long time but from my understanding the legislation keeps getting shot down. This seems like a perfect workaround unless I'm missing something.

Sometimes I think you're strcat because you behave the same in a lot of ways but seem to have the complete opposite opinions
