Parallel Reconstruction of Lawful TLS Wiretapping

Transport Layer Security (TLS) is the protocol involved in getting the lock icon to appear in your browser next to the URL. Under the hood it uses a bunch of really cool numbers for encryption. Some numbers are considered private and need securing; some are considered public and are fine for sharing. You can mix your numbers with other people’s numbers in such a way that you can verify a chain of trust. Ultimately, at the top of this chain there has to be an entity or entities that are implied to be trustworthy, so that the links further down the chain of numbers can inherit that trust. This is the role of a root Certificate Authority (CA) at the top (root) of the chain.

Backdoors zijn een heel erg dom idee, vroeg of laat zullen ze tegen je gebruikt worden, of het nu gaat om aftap verplichting, bewaarplichten of het verzwakken van end to end encryptie, het zal mis gaan:

Sure. Depends on the OS.

I focus on Android OS 10, 11 & 12 currently #VirusTota'ing the client #FinFisher, #FinSpy & #finsky & their attaccc proxy servers also.

Android 13, 14, 15 for https://GammaGroup.Com client is on my roadmap this year & into next year though.

I've been super busy on other projects since this one is very charity work oriented in #infosec of #CALEA & #GreyMarket #CALEA software.

Occasionally I also post about #NSOGroup since they are a competitor to GammaGroup in the UK.
