Have you tried both Bitwarden and Proton Pass? How does Proton Pass' free plan compares to Bitwarden? What's your thoughts on their mobile client?

Thinking about switching to Proton Pass (still going to use Bitwarden as backup).

Last night I got a visit from the #infosec fairy.

She said: "Martin, you have been doing a lot of good security deeds, I decided to grant you a wish."

I replied: "Great, I always wanted a unicorn."

The fairy looked pained: "You know, unicorns are extinct. That is a very difficult wish. Do you have another one?"

I thought long and hard: "How about a working IT security process?"

Now I have a question for the community: What does a unicorn eat?

I'm looking to borrow (it's $200 and I'm not buying it) a copy of an extremely niche book from a law school library for a week or so. It's called "Cybersecurity and the Courthouse: Safeguarding the Judicial Process".

It should be very useful for all of my recent #cybersecurity work in that area (see https://github.com/qwell/disclosures/).

If you, dear reader, have access to such things, I'd like to have a chat to see what we can figure out.

Boosts highly appreciated.

Years later, #Marriott admits data were not encrypted before its 2018 #databreach. Now what?

Did they get insurance reimbursement because their claim said the data had been encrypted? Will #SEC find they made a material misrepresentation to consumers and investors?

Will people who didn't try to sue them claim they had relied on Marriott's statement and they now want to sue them?

Lots of questions, including when did they first find out that the data had not been encrypted and why didn't they find out and disclose it sooner?

Great reporting by Evan Schuman:

Marriott admits it falsely claimed for five years it was using encryption during 2018 breach

Marriot revealed in a court case around a massive 2018 data breach that it had been using secure hash algorithm 1 and not the much more secure AES-1 encryption as it had earlier maintained.

yeah this is pissing me off as I’m one of the larger cybersecurity creators on TikTok at 368,000 followers. It’s still how everyone finds my mastodon, twitch, and soon YouTube. It’s still also 80% of my revenue for my content creation LLC between shop and content payouts.

BREAKING: #Israeli private investigator arrested for cyberespionage on behalf of American PR firm.

Caught by UK under #RedNotice from 🇺🇸US while boarding a flight.

BIG TWIST in a wild case that began w/our @citizenlab investigation into indian hack-for-hire group #belltrox

Sound familiar?

Because Amit Forlit is the *second* PI from #Israel arrested in similar way for this case.

First = convicted.

#Networks like #I2P serve useful to #OSINT #investigations, #Journalism, and #activism (#clearnet conns can be more private using #outproxy in I2P).

You can customize your routing experience, even change number of hops, banning and unbanning routers based on suspicious behavior! 😎

💡 TIP: take advantage of using both I2P & #Tor browser set up - spreading the risk to personal #privacy / #anonymity (+ avoid blocks).

Right now I2P is under attack: help by running i2p!
