When Google announced an intent to revoke trust from certificates issued by Symantec, this set off alarm bells all over the certificate authority industry. But that was March. What actually happened? Rendition Infosec has periodically tracked the SSL certificates on the Alexa top 1 million sites. In this talk, we’ll review that data set and examine what, if any, changes the Google announcement regarding Symantec certs had on certificate renewal/reissuance. We’ll also offer realistic suggestions for revoking trust in the future – had this been an actual fire drill, we’d have been burned alive.

Crypto has served an important role in securing sensitive data throughout the years, but ransomware has flipped this script on its head by leveraging crypto as a means to instead prevent users from accessing their own data. The crypto seen in ransomware covers a wide range of complexity of symmetric and asymmetric algorithms, but flaws in their implementation and key storage / transmission routines have left the door open for users to retrieve their data in certain cases. In this talk, I'll provide a glimpse into some of the more notable ransomware crypto implementations that have surfaced over the past few years and how their weaknesses were exploited by security researchers through reverse engineering and cryptanalysis.

You want to design customer-focused, easy-to-use products that your customers will love - but you aren’t doing your job if you wait until the last minute (or beyond!) to think about privacy. Tacking on privacy features as an afterthought isn’t only bad for your users, it’s also bad for your company. Privacy starts with your backend systems and carries forward through your product development cycle, your user testing, your product release, and all the way to your customer support. Learn how to build privacy into your products from the ground up, and create an awesome privacy story for both your company and your users.

#STROBE Since Keccak has been selected as the winner of the SHA-3 competition in 2012, a myriad of different hash functions have been trending. From BLAKE2 to KangarooTwelve we'll cover what hash functions are out there, what is being used, and what you should use. Extending hash functions, we’ll also discover STROBE, a symmetric protocol framework derived from SHA-3.

Supply Chain Attacks are such a big vector

Solving the usability problem and the current move to elliptic curve based cryptography allows Internet security to move beyond the limited cryptographic primitives used in TLS, SSH, and OpenPGP. Public key encryption offers more than just encryption and signatures. Future message encryption schemes will allow end-to-end secure communication within groups of users without the sender having to create decryption material for each intended recipient

not so quick my friend
