Meet ‘TajMahal,’ A New and Highly Advanced APT Framework

SINGAPORE – Researchers at Kaspersky Lab have discovered a new, highly sophisticated advanced persistent threat APT framework targeting a single Central Asian diplomatic agency. Malware samples associated with the APT reveal a complex never-before-seen code base, making it extremely hard to detec...

Unhackable Cryptography?

A recent article overhyped the release of EverCrypt, a cryptography library created using formal methods to prove security against specific attacks. The Quanta magazine article sets off a series of "snake-oil" alarm bells. The author's Github README is more measured and accurate, and illustrates...

A Go implementation of Poly1305 that makes sense

Poly1305 is a Message Authentication Code--a cryptographic primitive for authenticating a message with a shared secret key, like HMAC. Although its really a fraction of the complexity of e.g. elliptic curves, most of the implementations Ive read look decidedly like magic, mysteriously multiplying...
