- If you use PGP or S/MIME for email encryption you should immediately disable it in your email client. Researchers have discovered a critical vulnerability they’re calling EFAIL that exposes the encrypted emails in plaintext, even for messages sent in the past.
- THE UBIQUITOUS EMAIL encryption schemes PGP and S/MIME are vulnerable to attack, according to a group of German and Belgian researchers who posted their findings on Monday. The weakness could allow a hacker to expose plaintext versions of encrypted messages—a nightmare scenario for users who rely on encrypted email to protect their privacy, security, and safety.
- Digital security trainers, whistleblowers, journalists, activists, cryptographers, industry, and nonprofit organizations have relied on PGP for 27 years as a way to protect email communications from eavesdroppers and ensure the authenticity of messages. If you’re like us, you likely have recommended PGP as an end-to-end encrypted email solution in workshops, trainings, guides, cryptoparties, and keysigning parties. It can be hard to imagine a workflow without PGP once you’ve taken the time to learn it and incorporate it in your communications.
