Encryption, Encoding and Hashing Explained
What is Encoding? Encoding is a process of transforming the data into different parameters to enhance its compatibility, usefulness, and to transmit it through various systems and applications. Therefore, the main purpose of encoding is not security for data but rather compatibility that makes data readable and intelligible to as many computer systems as possible.Read…

New Attacks Against Secure Enclaves
Encryption can protect data at rest and data in transit, but does nothing for data in use. What we have are secure enclaves. I’ve written about this before: Almost all cloud services have to perform some computation on our data. Even the simplest storage provider has code to copy bytes from an internal storage system…

New Whisper-Based Attack Reveals User Prompts Hidden Inside Encrypted AI Traffic
Microsoft researchers have unveiled a sophisticated side-channel attack targeting remote language models that could allow adversaries to infer conversation topics from encrypted network traffic. Despite end-to-end encryption via Transport Layer Security (TLS), the attack exploits patterns in packet sizes and timing to classify the subject matter of user prompts sent to AI chatbots. The research…

Gesundheitswesen: Erpressungen auf Höchststand, Stress bei den Teams
Schwachstellen und Kapazitätsprobleme sind die Hauptursachen für Ransomware-Angriffe im Gesundheitswesen, wobei die Verschlüsselung von Daten auf ein Fünfjahrestief gesunken ist. Gleichzeitig sind die Lösegeldforderungen und -zahlungen zurückgegangen, während die Angreifer vermehrt auf reine Erpressungsangriffe setzen. Die Belastung der IT- und Cybersicherheitsteams ist gestiegen, was sich in erhöhtem Druck, Angst und Stress äußert. In der aktuellen……
