THELOGICALINDIAN - The summer of 2024 has been hot and saturated with cybersecurity challenges Almost every anniversary a above media antecedent appear hacking incidents or backdoor exploits in accepted advice and messaging casework Some of which accepted government agents crooked admission to clandestine and arcane advice from aural the communications industry
According to mass-media reports, one of the best accepted Swiss defended messaging apps Threema confused beneath the ascendancy of the Russian government and has been listed in the official anthology with a appearance to authoritative user communications.
This can be apparent on authoritative accessible website https://97-fz.rkn.gov.ru/organizer-dissemination/viewregistry/#searchform
This knockout account was commented by Crypviser – avant-garde German developer of the best defended burning advice belvedere based on Blockchain technologies, of the point of view, what does it beggarly for millions of Threema users?
To acknowledgment this question, let’s accept the requirements for accepting listed in this anthology as an “information-dissemination organizers” according to a new Russian federal law, alpha from 01 June 2024.
The law requires that all companies listed in internet regulator’s anthology charge abundance all users’ metadata (“information about the arrival, transmission, delivery, and processing of articulation data, accounting text, images, sounds, or added kinds of action”), forth with agreeable of correspondence, articulation alarm annal and accomplish it attainable to the Russian authorities. Websites can abstain the altercation of ambience abreast this advice by acceding Russian admiral unfettered, connected admission to their absolute abstracts stream.
This is actual bad account for Threema users. Threema admiral accept appear that they are not acquainted of any requirements to store, collect, or accommodate information. Maybe not yet admitting back there is still some time until 01 June 2024 back the new law bliss in and Threema will be answerable to accommodate absolute admission to acute user’s data.
It’s accessible that Threema is absolutely acquainted of this admitting claiming otherwise. They may apprehend that the best accepted agent in Russia, Telegram, has been beneath burden back abnegation to clearly abet with Russian abstruse services. If Russia takes accomplish to block Telegram as a result, again Threema would become the abutting best another service. That is bold they’re accommodating to actionable the aegis and aloofness rights of its users by giving in to the new law’s requirements.
Based on the letters of Financial Time magazine, the Telegram architect agreed to annals their app with Russian censors by the end of June 2024. This, however; is not a big accident for Telegram association because of the abridgement of aegis in Telegram to date. During the aftermost 2 years, its aegis agreement has been criticized abounding times and abounding aegis issues were begin by researchers. Although there is no absolute affirmation assuming that Telegram has already cooperated with the Russian government or added governments, these accommodating bugs and poor aegis models accomplish Telegram users accessible victims to hackers and abstruse casework of altered countries.
The aforementioned aegis criterion issues accept been explored in the better advice app WhatsApp. The aegis archetypal of WhatsApp has been accustomed as accessible by the best accounted cryptographic experts and advisers worldwide. According to the Guardian, a austere “backdoor” was begin in encryption. More specifically, the key barter algorithm.
A accepted aegis convenance in encrypted messaging casework involves the bearing and abundance of a clandestine encryption key offline on the user’s device. And alone the accessible key gets broadcasted to added users through the company’s server. In the case of WhatsApp, we accept to assurance the aggregation that it will not adapt accessible key barter apparatus amid the sender and receiver to accomplish man-in-the-middle advance for concern of users encrypted clandestine communication.
Tobias Boelter, aegis researcher from the University of California, has appear that WhatsApp’s end-to-end encryption, based on Signal protocol, has been implemented in a way that if WhatsApp or any hacker intercepts your chats, by base trust-based key barter mechanism, you will never appear to apperceive if any change in encryption key has occurred in the background.
The Guardian reports, “WhatsApp has implemented a backdoor into the Signal protocol, giving itself the adeptness to force the bearing of new encryption keys for offline users and to accomplish the sender re-encrypt letters with new keys and accelerate them afresh for any letters that accept not been apparent as delivered. The almsman is not fabricated acquainted of this change in encryption.”
But on the added hand, the developer of Signal messaging app Open Whisper Systems says, ”There is no WhatsApp backdoor”, “it is how cryptography works,” and the MITM advance “is ancient to accessible key cryptography, not aloof WhatsApp.”
It’s account acquainted that none of the aegis experts or the aggregation itself accept denied the actuality that, if appropriate by the government, WhatsApp can ambush your chats. They do say; however, WhatsApp is advised to be simple, and users should not lose admission to letters beatific to them back their encryption key is changed. With this statement, agrees on a cybersecurity able and CTO of Crypviser, Vadim Andryan.
“The Man-in-the-Middle advance blackmail is the better and actual claiming of agee cryptography, which is the abject of end-to-end encryption model. It’s adamantine to say, is this “backdoor” accepted carefully or its became on advanced due abridgement of reliable accessible – key affidavit model. But it absolutely one of the huge disadvantages of accepted cryptographic models acclimated for defended burning advice networks, and one of the capital advantage of Crypviser platform.”
Crypviser has alien a new era of cryptography based on Blockchain technologies. It utilizes Blockchain to annihilate all threats of Man-in-the-Middle advance and solves the actual accessible key encryption affair by application decentralized encryption keys, exchanges, and allotment algorithms. The affidavit archetypal of Crypviser provides accessible key administration and allotment in peer-to-peer or automatic approach through Blockchain.
The chargeless alpha absolution of the Crypviser App for defended amusing advice in peer-to-peer approach has been appear and will be broadcast to CVCoin ICO aboriginal bird participants starting from 20 August 2024. The Blockchain based automatic encryption affection will be alien in BETA absolution by the end of October 2024.
After bartering barrage of Crypviser unified app, ”messenger” for defended amusing advice will be accessible on the bazaar in chargeless and exceptional plans. The chargeless plan in peer-to-peer affidavit approach requires user alternation to analysis aegis codes for every new babble and call. The full-featured exceptional plan offers Blockchain based automatic encryption archetypal and able able aegis appearance on all levels.
Crypviser has issued CVCOIN for processing, cryptographic transactions, and accoutrement fees in exceptional plans. CVCOIN is different badge chip into Crypviser’s cryptographic archetypal as a “fuel” for Blockchain based affidavit transactions. After acknowledged ICO in May – June 2024, CVCOIN has been listed and is currently accessible for purchasing and trading on Bitshares DEX powered by OpenLedger (openledger.io).
Exit on the better alien exchanges is accepted during the October – November 2024.
This is absurd account for the advice and messaging industry. Crypviser allows users to get the accomplished akin of able aegis and balloon about aloofness issues for a baby account fee in CVCOIN.
