I'm bored.

I really want to do something with #Cryptography like #Certificates, etc.

I don't know though. What do people do with this? I want to make something that works everywhere as an experiment that may end up being fully used.

Making my own certs require having a trusted #CARoot which not every system will have. Could do that but I don't see a point really.

Not sure right now, any ideas from the audience?

Schneier on Security · AIs as Trusted Third Parties - Schneier on SecurityThis is a truly fascinating paper: “Trusted Machine Learning Models Unlock Private Inference for Problems Currently Infeasible with Cryptography.” The basic idea is that AIs can act as trusted third parties: Abstract: We often interact with untrusted parties. Prioritization of privacy can limit the effectiveness of these interactions, as achieving certain goals necessitates sharing private data. Traditionally, addressing this challenge has involved either seeking trusted intermediaries or constructing cryptographic protocols that restrict how much data is revealed, such as multi-party computations or zero-knowledge proofs. While significant advances have been made in scaling cryptographic approaches, they remain limited in terms of the size and complexity of applications they can be used for. In this paper, we argue that capable machine learning models can fulfill the role of a trusted third party, thus enabling secure computations for applications that were previously infeasible. In particular, we describe Trusted Capable Model Environments (TCMEs) as an alternative approach for scaling secure computation, where capable machine learning model(s) interact under input/output constraints, with explicit information flow control and explicit statelessness. This approach aims to achieve a balance between privacy and computational efficiency, enabling private inference where classical cryptographic solutions are currently infeasible. We describe a number of use cases that are enabled by TCME, and show that even some simple classic cryptographic problems can already be solved with TCME. Finally, we outline current limitations and discuss the path forward in implementing them...

In high-context cultures, where language is full of steganography, a phrase like “That was... interesting” can carry a payload of critique, sarcasm, or genuine curiosity—all depending on tone and context.

The moment one person laughs, others begin to reinterpret the message. This is steganalysis contagion: once someone cracks the subtext, everyone starts scanning for hidden layers.

Social decoding is viral.

'And then there’s #Bitcoin. The #cryptocurrency is exquisitely vulnerable to Q-Day. Because each block in the Bitcoin #blockchain captures the data from the previous block, Bitcoin cannot be upgraded to post-#quantum #cryptography, according to Kapil Dhiman, CEO of Quranium, a post-quantum blockchain security company. “The only solution to that seems to be a hard fork—give birth to a new chain and the old chain dies.”'

UK urges critical orgs to adopt quantum cryptography by 2035

The UK's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has published specific timelines on migrating to post-quantum cryptography (PQC), dictating that critical organizations should complete migration by 2035.
