@CppGuy@infosec.space @anon_opin@mastodon.social yeah i figured this was the problem. just so funny how much it was marketed as going to be lightning fast but it has just reduced to 4G speeds in pretty much any populated area when people are actually using it.

@QueerMatters@mstdn.social you probably can but not reliably. i did a dissertation recently on website fingerprinting which is a passive side channel attack. you might want to look into website fingerprinting and i think there's an adjacent attack called keyword fingerprinting which might have more applicable ideas.

@QueerMatters@mstdn.social it'd probably be TLS 1.3 nowadays. if you haven't removed the TLS encryption it's likely forward secrecy is causing differences in the encrypted packets even when doing the same thing.

@Ichinin@infosec.exchange have had a few recommendations:

  • riseup (https://riseup.net) - free (pay what you want model) but seems reputable, quick Wikipedia check shows they've been around a while.
  • ccrypto (https://vpn.ccrypto.org/) - €3/mo and seems simple enough. no app but its just wireguard so you can use the wireguard app or program on whatever platform.

been forced to use #latex for an assignment. spent 1h20m just trying to get the template they've given us and ACM referencing working.

it is crazy how much better #typst is. i could have probably rewritten their template from scratch in like 20 minutes and i'd get live updates without fiddling with vimtex for ages because typst-preview just works.

@zaire @benjojo A HSM in the high-level sense is a networked computer built on top of well-tested lab certified hardware, with a security-focused OS. They have limited access via some interface that is controlled by internal rules. They are designed to hide and protect cryptographic material. Generally they will also have anti-tamper markings or anti-tamper mechanisms which may even destroy the cryptographic material if tampering is detected. They are used in a manner of things. e-Passport security use HSMs in the gates which prevents anyone (including the operator) from tampering with it. Companies usually store signing keys in HSMs. HSMs secure smart metering systems. They secure mobile money payments. Pin issuing for payment cards is done by HSMs. Around Europe, around 6000km of roads have a "cooperative intelligent transport system" for linking "vehicles, road users, service providers, and road operators" which also uses HSMs in some manner. Some rail systems (five last I checked) use HSMs for signalling. HSMs also fulfill many roles in airlines.
