«New in #Gmail: Making end-to-end #encrypted #emails easy to use for all organizations»
More than #E2EE, I'd call it company-to-company #encryption.
Periodic reminder for those trying to #DeGoogle their lives:
Great news for those looking to securely store your #photos online, and keep other apps from prying (Google!), I highly recommend Ente. The founder and lead Dev is a former Google employee and committed to P R I V A C Y.
https://ente.io is cross platform, under rigorous development, Open Source, E2EE, and you can use it for free with 10GB of storage (up from 5GB previously).
They just announced their first major version update today (Ente v1.0).
Easily import your Google Photos and Instagram pics too.
And... if you need more storage, use MY referral code below. If you are on a paid plan, we each get an extra 10GB of FREE storage.
My paid plan of 50GB is only $2.99/mo. (US)
⟶ Ente referral code: * RVCAPI *
⟶ Apply it in Settings → General → Referrals, to get additional 10 GB free, after you signup for a paid plan.
Creating a Simple Encrypted Matrix Bot in Go
Creating a basic Matrix bot is straightforward—generate an access token, send an HTTP request, and you're done. But posting messages to an encrypted room with verified sessions is a bit more involved. This guide will walk you step-by-step through creating your own encrypted Matrix bot using Golang.https://chrastecky.dev/programming/creating-a-simple-encrypted-matrix-bot-in-go

End-to-End Encryption is only as good as the security stance of the person on the other side. If they're using Windows 11...
Dass die Themen "#Sicherheit" und "#Datenschutz" nicht zwingend Hand in Hand gehen, erkennt man hervorragend am Beispiel von Messenger-Diensten fürs #Smartphone.
So kann man etwa #WhatsApp aus rein technischer Sicht durchaus als sicheren #Messenger bezeichnen – am Thema Datenschutz klebt dennoch ein gigantisches Fragezeichen. Stichwort: #Metadaten.
In c’t 9/2025
haben wir uns eine kleine Auswahl an Messengern genau angeschaut, miteinander verglichen und auch einen Blick darauf geworfen, wie sich die Technik der Messenger und ihr politisches Umfeld entwickeln. Dazu passend sprechen wir in diesem c’t uplink darüber, wie moderne Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung in ihren Grundzügen funktioniert und wie sich die einzelnen Produkte unterscheiden. Wie ist das mit Metadatenerfassung und Datenschutz? Und was will die EU mit der #Chatkontrolle ?

Hello #mastodon!
We are Oliver, Peter and Simeon from #zeitkapsl
a European 
alternative for securely storing, sharing, and organizing your precious memories with end-to-end encryption.
No ads. No tracking. Just your memories, safe and sound.
Für was würdest du dich entscheiden?

Generates random 16 bytes, transforms it to CryptoKey Object, encrypts it for RSA-key issuer
@oceanhaiyang I only can link to documentation why you should use @monocles over @Tutanota & @protonprivacy because both refuse to elaborate or support #SelfCustody of #Keys!
Also Proton snitched on their users - as will every single provider cuz #corporations can't invoke the right to remain silent!
Les CHATONS sont sympas mais si vous cherchez où héberger vos données en Europe, n'oubliez pas que tous les États membres de l'UE ne sont pas égaux en matière de loi sur la divulgation des clés de chiffrement.
Voir la page **Key Disclosure Law** sur Wikipedia[1] - la législation qui exige que les individus remettent les clés cryptographiques aux autorités.
Top pick :
- Allemagne
- Islande
- Belgique (avec réserve)
- Suisse (et encore)
If you're using Linux, and you're looking to set up encrypted network-accessible storage, I have a blog post describing how to do that using rclone.
https://michael.kjorling.se/blog/2024/setting-up-encrypted-remote-storage-on-linux-using-rclone/
You can use this with any storage backend that rclone supports, which is *many*:
Note that you'll need to have rclone on any system you want to access your files from.
Not sure if this qualifies as a QT or addendum to https://social.circl.lu/@quinn/114337209093756652

by me:
Encryption Is Not a Crime
The war against encryption isn't new, but the quantity of data about us that needs protection is.
Despite the senseless attacks,
it is vital that we fight back to protect the right to using end-to-end encryption.

Google rolls out easy End-to-End Encryption for Gmail Business Users.
Google says that after Gmail's new E2EE model rolls out, business users will be able to send fully encrypted emails to any user on any email service or platform without having to worry about complex certificate requirements.
![Gmail's new E2EE capability is powered by the client-side encryption [CSE] Workspace technical control that enables organizations to use encryption keys stored outside Google's servers and under their control to protect sensitive emails and documents.
<https://support.google.com/a/answer/10741897>
This ensures that all transmitted data is encrypted on the client before being sent to Google's cloud-based storage, which helps meet regulatory requirements, such as data sovereignty, HIPAA and export controls, by rendering it indecipherable to Google and third-party entities.
Gmail CSE has been available for Google Workspace Enterprise Plus, Education Plus and Education Standard customers since February 2023, and was introduced in Gmail on the web as a beta test in December 2022 after an initial rollout to Google Drive, Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, Google Meet and Google Calendar [in beta].](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/114/336/060/565/737/831/original/7f37334cc31fdf2e.jpeg "Gmail's new E2EE capability is powered by the client-side encryption [CSE] Workspace technical control that enables organizations to use encryption keys stored outside Google's servers and under their control to protect sensitive emails and documents.

Part of the proposed changes relates to how orgs are classified and governed under the existing surveillance law.
In the proposed revision, smaller Digital Service Providers such as Threema and Proton would be subjected to similar surveillance rules (and deadlines) as the bigger ISPs today.
They are against it, fearing (rightly) that it would impose significant costs on them, to handle authorities' requests and develop/deploy/maintain a surveillance infrastructure comparable to that already in place at bigger companies and ISPs such as Swisscom, Salt, etc.
The other change of the proposition, is the access of (near) real time metadata.
On the positive side, e2ee and message contents are explicitly excluded from the surveillance.
I'm curious to see what the final proposition will look like regarding the SMEs.
