Apple did a new security thing for their latest phones with memory integrity enforcement, we did a deep a dive as we could given that we couldn't get anyone from Apple to come on our podcast 😭

Chapter view of a podcast app showing chapters named “pgp for encrypted email”, “fcking metadata”, “m-m-m-metadata”, “SMTP m-m-m-metadata”, and “dkim, spam”

Chapter view of a podcast app showing chapters named “pgp for encrypted email”, “fcking metadata”, “m-m-m-metadata”, “SMTP m-m-m-metadata”, and “dkim, spam”

I have just today discovered that podcasts can be chapterised, and that apparently @scwpod.bsky.social is painstakingly broken into chapters with often-joke names

Come for the PGP dunks, stay for the broader discussion of why encrypted email doesn’t make sense

Stop Using Encrypted Email with William Woodruff
YouTube video by Security Cryptography Whatever Stop Using Encrypted Email with William Woodruff

NEW EPISODE!

An OpenPGP.js bug gave us an excuse to tear encrypted email via PGP to shreds. William Woodruff joined us to explain the vuln & indulge our gnashing of teeth on why email was never meant to be encrypted:

The first part of this interview with my ex-colleague Alex is a great listen if you're a software engineer (or otherwise technical) and are interested in what we were working on as technologists at the Federal Trade Commission.

Sandboxes? In my process? It's more likely than you think. Discussions around memory safety often focus on choice of language, and how the language can provide memory safety guarantees. Unfortunately, choosing a language is a decision made at the start of a p...

Wrote some words about memory safety and JITs. Basically, there are things we want out of hardware, but it's not MTE and it still involves migrating to memory safe languages

NEW EPISODE!

It seems like everyone that deploys E2EE encrypted cloud storage seems to mess it up, often in new and creative ways. Our special guests Matilda Backendal, Jonas Hofmann, & Kien Tuong Trong give us a tour & discuss how to actually build one securely:

This one was super fun. We talked with Jonas Hofmann, Kien Tuong Trong, and Matilda Backendal about a cross-section study of "E2EE" secure storage (not messaging, storage). Backendal is working to formalize that problem (it wasn't already!) Fun bugs!

Migrating the US government to quantum-resistant cryptography is hard, luckily the gamer presidents are on it.

This episode is very not safe for work, nor does it reflect the political opinions of, well, anybody.
