Falls nochmal jemand das Märchen erzählt, das Client-Side-Scanning der #Chatkontrolle sei kein Angriff auf Verschlüsselung, bitte schickt ihnen dieses FAQ:

Wissenschaftler*innen versuchen es jetzt der Politik schon wirklich so einfach wie möglich zu machen, damit sie diesen total fehlgeleiteten Angriff auf sichere Kommunikation endlich aufhalten.

First WOOT session today was on Hardware Security - two talks on a variety of cutting-edge attacks against the RP2350 and a talk about automating the identification of hardware fault injection attacks against software using pre-silicon analysis.

Ever wanted to do practical security research on platforms like iOS and Android? Obsessed with digging through system internals, tearing apart proprietary firmware and hardware or breaking down wireless protocols? Maybe you've spent weekends battling in CTFs?

I'm growing my team at Hasso Plattner Institute and am looking for a PhD student or Postdoc. It's a full-time, paid position in a supportive academic environment with a focus on impactful, real-world systems security research.
