The world’s first social network with end-to-end encryption has arrived – PR Web
Epiwall provides a unique mix of private and public spaces; they key to privacy relies on private spaces... the key to monetization relies on the user's interactions with public spaces- normally used by businesses wanting to advertise at Epiwall
BRANDON, Fla. (PRWEB) March 08, 2021
Inspired by the recent events on breaches of data and privacy of social network users, a Florida-based company has released Epiwall, the world's first social network with end-to-end encryption. Epiwall, which stands for "Enhanced Private Interactions", aims to bring peace of mind to users of social media concerned about their privacy or the usage of their interactions data for business purposes. This is achieved by using end-to-end encryption, meaning that all user posts and chat messages are encrypted by the application at the user's device, stored encrypted and decrypted at the devices of the user's social media connections.
Although the concept of end-to-end encryption is not new and it's currently being used in messaging applications like Signal and WhatsApp, it had never been applied to all social network functionalities, like posting, commenting and sharing. These features make Epiwall unique in its category.
Epiwall's patent-pending technology will also allow for monetization of public spaces. According to its creator, Dr. Javier A. Arroyo-Figueroa, "Epiwall provides a unique mix of private and public spaces. Both types of spaces are encrypted; however, they key to privacy relies on private spaces, as the encryption keys are only known to the user's connections at the space. The key to monetization relies on the user's interactions with public spaces- normally used by businesses wanting to advertise at Epiwall".

Instagram working on Clubhouse-like audio rooms, end-to-end encryption in chats – The Express Tribune
Instagram is reportedly working on bringing its users live audio chat rooms, a feature inspired by the audio-chat app Clubhouse. Not just this, the Facebook-owned company might roll out end-to-end encryption in chats as well, reports XDA developers.
App Researcher Alessandro Paluzzi shared screenshots of the under-development Instagram feature on their Twitter account.
While Paluzzi did not elaborate on the functionality of the live audio room feature the microphone icon next to the camera icon suggests that Instagram might incorporate audio and video live rooms.
Facebook tests feature in India to share Instagram reels on its news feed
The concept of live audio chat rooms has become popular after the launch of the Club-House app which regularly draws big crowds into audio chat rooms lured by surprise appearances by the likes of musician Drake and billionaire Elon Musk.
The app has also quickly attracted big companies hoping to reach the estimated 8 million users who have downloaded the hottest new digital platform since TikTok.
Twitter grants academics full access to public data, but not for suspended accounts
Paluzzi also shared that Instagram might soon have end-to-end encryption in its chats.
Even though Instagram currently has vanish mode option available that disappears messages with the app becoming end-to-end encrypted users will have more privacy on their chats.
Facebook also announced that it is testing a feature on Instagram that allows some content creators in India to share short video clips, known as reels, on their Facebook accounts.

Instagram might be working on Clubhouse competitor and end-to-end encryption – HT Tech
Clubhouse may have taken the world by storm over the past year, but its rivals are quickly working on competing services, like Twitters Spaces and Fireside. According to a leaked image posted on Twitter, Instagram is reportedly working on a new Audio Rooms feature.

The image-sharing platforms rumoured feature was first spotted on Twitter after mobile developer and leaker Alessandro Paluzzi posted two screenshots in a tweet earlier today. The features were likely enabled via reverse engineering the app to enable hidden strings, which suggests the feature is still at an early stage.
In Paluzzis first screenshot, the Direct Messages section of the Instagram app shows a third Microphone icon to the left of the Compose and Video Call buttons at the top left of the app. The second screenshot shows a basic Loading.. message next to his user profile on the bottom of the screen and a microphone icon and a cross symbol, presumably to mute and unmute yourself and exit the Audio Room.

However, it looks like Audio Rooms arent the only feature Instagram seems to be working on. Paluzzi later tweeted another image that indicates the Facebook-owned app could be working on end-to-end encryption for some of its chats. The feature will probably show up when users try to start a new chat and is depicted by a label Start end-to-end encrypted chat above the contacts name.
The arrival of end-to-end encryption on Instagram is the next step in Facebooks plans to bring its chat services together. The move was previously announced by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg years ago when he stated that the company was planning on making its chat services interoperable.
The company plans to do this b merging the chat services backend of Instagram DMs, Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp Messenger to be interoperable so users on one service could talk to each other. However, the development of end-to-end encryption could still be in its early stages and it is currently unknown when it will eventually roll out.

WhatsApp working on encrypted chat backups for iCloud and Google Drive – Business Standard
WhatsApp is working on password-protected, encrypted chat backups for iCloud and Google Drive, according to WABetaInfo -- a WhatsApp features tracker. The feature is still under development and there is no release date available as of now, said the WABetaInfo in a post published on Twitter.
WhatsApp allows its users to backup and store chats history on the device and online on cloud storages Google Drive for Android and iCloud for iPhone users. While the conversations and chats on the instant messaging platform are end-to-end encrypted, the backup stored on iCloud or Google Drive is not. Hence, WhatsApp seems to have been working to improve the privacy and security features of the instant messaging platform.
WABetaInfo has also shared screenshots of the feature. The screenshots suggest that if a user forgets the password, WhatsApp will not be able to help in this case.
The user will be required to enter their phone number to confirm password protection for their backups.
Although WhatsApp allows cloud backups for both Android and iOS devices, it doesn't offer end-to-end encryption on the cloud for these backups which raises privacy concerns. This upcoming feature will add an extra layer of protection to users' chats.
WhatsApp recently drew flak from all corners after it revised the privacy policy and usage terms in January to reflect the instant messaging platforms data-sharing terms with its parent company Facebook.
WhatsApp had initially given its users until February 8 to accept the new privacy policy and usage terms. However, the instant messaging platform had extended the deadline to accept the terms by May 15.
This prompted a large number of people to migrate to alternatives messaging apps such as Signal, Telegram, etc.

WhatsApp working on encrypted chat backups for iCloud and Google Drive - Business Standard
Finally! WhatsApp is working on encrypting iCloud and Drive backups – Pocketnow
WhatsApp works in mysterious ways. It encrypts your chats end-to-endon your phone so that no external authority can have access to these chats. However, it doesnt provide encryption for your chat backups. Hence, those are prone to attacks and the chats can be leaked. However, WhatsApp is now reportedly working on fixing this.
Your backups of WhatsApp chats will soon be password-protected. Moreover, the chat app will encrypt these backups for both Cloud and Google Drive, says a new report. The feature is currently in the works. It is said to allow users to keep their WhatsApp chat backups protected from unauthorized access by enabling them to set a password.
As previously announced, @WhatsApp is working on cloud backups encryption.
The chat database and media will be safe from unauthorized access when using a password. The password is private and it's not sent to WhatsApp.
It will be available in a future build for iOS and Android. pic.twitter.com/Lp06PaECBX— WABetaInfo (@WABetaInfo) March 8, 2021
The information comes from WABetaInfo, which took to Twitter to report that your future chat backups on WhatsApp could be password-protected and encrypted. It also shared some screenshots of the feature. These show how it would work in the future. To prevent unauthorized access to your iCloud Drive backup, you can set a password that will be used to encrypt future backups, reads the description on one of the screenshots shared by WABetaInfo. This password will be required when you restore from the backup.
The new feature is likely to be made available on both iOS and Android WhatsApp apps. This would allow you to password-protect your chat backups on both iCloud and Google Drive. Notably, the screenshots suggest that WhatsApp would not be able to help recover forgotten passwords. There is no Forgot Password options as of now.
Meanwhile, WhatsApp has introduced voice and video calls on its web version and desktop app. The company says its voice and video calls are end-to-end encrypted. Hence, WhatsApp cannot hear or see them whether you call from your phone or your computer. Further, these only work for one-to-one chats as of now.

What is end-to-end encryption & how does it work? – Security Boulevard
This blog provides overview of end-to-end encryption and how it protects the enterprise.
Over the past few years, the vulnerability of social networks like Facebook or messaging apps like Chat has given rise to using end-to-end encrypted platforms to protect communications. Today, platforms like WhatsApp, Signal and PreVeil use end-to-end encryption to protect the exchanges of users data. Yet what is end-to-end encryption and how does it work? How does it differ from other forms of data protection and how does end-to-end encryption ensure the protection of data?This piece will focus on providing answers to these questions.
End-to-end encryption provides the gold-standard for protecting communication. In an end-to-end encrypted system, the only people who can access the data are the sender and the intended recipient(s) and no one else. Neither ackers nor unwanted third parties can access the encrypted data on the server.In true end-to-end encryption, encryption occurs at the device level. That is, messages and files are encrypted before it leaves the phone or computer and isnt decrypted until it reaches its destination. As a result, hackers cannot access data on the server because they do not have the private keys to decrypt the data. Instead, secret keys are stored with the individual user on their device which makes it much harder to access an individuals data.The security behind end-to-end encryption is enabled by the creation of a public-private key pair. This process, also known as asymmetric cryptography, employs separate cryptographic keys for securing and decrypting the message. Public keys are widely disseminated and are used to lock or encrypt a message. Private keys are only known by the owner and are used to unlock or decrypt the message.In end-to-end encryption, the system creates public and private cryptographic keys for each person who joins.
An example
Lets say Alice and Bob create accounts on the system. The end-to-end encrypted system provides each with a public-private key pair, whereby their public keys are stored on the server and their private keys are stored on their device.Alice wants to send Bob an encrypted message. She uses Bobs public key and encrypts her message to him with it. Then, when Bob receives the message, he uses his private key on his device to decrypt the message from Alice.When Bob wants to reply, he simply repeats the process, encrypting his message to Alice using Alices public key.
Security practitioners often point out that security is a chain that is only as strong as the weakest link. Bad guys will attack the weakest parts of your system because they are the parts most likely to be easily broken. Given that data is most vulnerable when stored on a server, hackers techniques are focused on gaining access to servers.As the Department of Homeland Security has written:Given that attackers will go after low hanging fruit like where the data is stored, a solution that does not protect stored data will leave information extremely vulnerable.End-to-end encryption however does protect stored data. In fact it secures and protects data throughout its journey. As such, end-to-end encryption is the safest option for data security available.As the DHS goes on to state in its report:Attacking the data while encrypted is just too much work [for attackers].
End-to-end encryption is important because it provides users and recipients security for their email and files from the moment the data is created by the user until the moment it is received by the recipient. It also ensures that no third party can read the exchanged messages.Services like Gmail, Yahoo or Microsoft enable the provider to access the content of users data on its servers because these providers hold copies to the decryption keys. As such, these providers can read users email and files. In Googles case, its possession of decryption keys has enabled them in the past to provide the Google account holder with targeted ads.By contrast, in well-constructed end-to-end encrypted systems, the system providers never have access to the decryption keys.
The NSA recently issued guidelines for using collaboration services. At the top of the NSAs list was the recommendation that collaboration services employ end-to-end encryption.End-to-ends inclusion in the NSAs list highlights its shift to the mainstream by an organization known to seek the highest levels of security for themselves and their technologies. The NSA notes that by following the guidelines it defines, users can reduce their risk exposure and become harder targets for bad actors.
The U.S. State Department has also wised up to the benefits of end-to-end encryption with their ITAR Carve out for Encrypted Technical data . The carve out establishes that defense companies can now share unclassified technical data outside the U.S. with authorized persons. This exchange can be done without requiring an export license so long as the data is properly secured with end-to-end encryption. If the data is end-to-end encrypted, the exchange is not considered an export.The NSAs and State Departments statements acknowledge that end-to-end encryption provides a significant advantage to users over traditional forms of encryption. End-to-end encryption secures data on the users device and only ever decrypts it on the recipients device. This means, the data can never be decrypted on the server nor in transit nor on the users device.

Can WhatsApp stop misinformation without compromising encryption? – Quartz
On a jaunt through the darker corners of the internet, a conspiracy-minded reader might come across a fake news story claiming that 5G cell towers spread Covid-19. Alarmed, he sends the story to his family WhatsApp group. A cousin forwards it to a few of her friends, and one of them forwards it to a group of 200 people dedicated to sharing local news. As the lie gains traction, WhatsApp helps it reach more people more quicklybut the apps managers have no way of knowing.
WhatsApp, the Facebook-owned messaging platform used by 2 billion people largely in the global south, has become a particularly troublesome vector for misinformation. The core of the problem is its use of end-to-end encryption, a security measure that garbles users messages while they travel from one phone to another so that no one other than the sender and the recipient can read them.
Encryption is a crucial privacy protection, but it also prevents WhatsApp from going as far as many of its peers to moderate misinformation. The app has taken some steps to limit the spread of viral messages, but some researchers and fact-checkers argue it should do more, while privacy purists worry the solutions will compromise users private conversations. As every social network does battle against the spread of viral lies, WhatsApp faces its own impossible choice: Protect user privacy at all costs, or go all in on curbing the spread of misinformation.
Digital encryption grew out of military efforts to create uncrackable secret codes, which date back at least as far as the Spartans. In the modern era, government scientists working with top secret clearances dominated the field until the 1970s, when computers started to gain commercial use. Among the earliest private sector adopters were banks, which needed a secure way to transmit financial information.
Consumer-facing encrypted messaging began in earnest in the 1990s, with the development of the Pretty Good Privacy protocol, which formed the backbone of early private-messaging software. The much more secure Signal protocolwhich powers the open-source encrypted messaging app of the same namewas developed in 2014. WhatsApp gave users the options to send messages using Signal encryption that year, and made it standard for all messages in 2016. Facebook added an optional encryption feature soon after, and in 2018 Google announced all conversations on its Android messenger would be encrypted.
Encryption is a key privacy protection, and ensures that WhatsApp is one of the few remaining places on the Internet where you can communicate without being snooped on by big businesses or governments. Activists and dissidents living under repressive regimes rely on encryption to communicate freely. But it also makes the conversations that happen in WhatsApp impossible to moderate.
Unlike Facebook and Twitter, which have redoubled their efforts to use algorithms and human fact-checkers to flag, hide, or delete the most harmful viral lies that spread on their platforms, WhatsApp cant see a single word of its users messages. That means misinformation about politics, the pandemic, and Covid-19 vaccines spread with little resistance, raising vaccine hesitancy, reducing compliance with public health measures like social distancing, and sparking several mob attacks and lynchings.
WhatsApp has already taken some steps to curb misinformation without eroding encryptionbut its options are limited. In April 2020, WhatsApp began slowing the spread of highly forwarded messages, the smartphone equivalent of 1990s chain emails. If a message has already been forwarded five times, you can only forward it to one person or group at a time.
WhatsApp claims that simple design tweak cut the spread of viral messages by 70%, and fact-checkers have cautiously cheered the change. But considering that all messages are encrypted, its impossible to know how much of an impact the cut had on misinformation, as opposed to more benign content like activist organizing or memes. Researchers who joined and monitored several hundred WhatsApp groups in Brazil, India, and Indonesia found that limiting message forwarding slows down viral misinformation, but doesnt necessarily limit how far the messages eventually spread.
WhatsApp also now affixes a magnifying glass icon to highly forwarded messages, which signals to the recipient that this is not an original missive from their friend but a viral message that has been ricocheting around the web. Users can tap the magnifying glass to quickly google the content of the message. But that puts the onus on people to do their own fact-checking, when they might be more inclined to trust information coming from a friend or family member.
Currently, fact-checking anything on WhatsApp is extremely labor-intensive. A handful of media outlets and nonprofits have set up tip lines, where users can forward any message they suspect might contain misinformation. Journalists on the other end of the line check out the claim and manually respond to each person with their findings, encouraging the recipient to pass on the fact-check to whoever sent them the message in the first place.
They have pretty limited reach, says Kiran Garimella, a postdoctoral fellow at MIT who studies WhatsApp misinformation. Not a lot of people are aware of them. Theres also the supply side: Journalists cannot scale, so if a million people suddenly start sending their tips, its a very labor-intensive process and they cannot do this at scale.
Garimella and others have called on WhatsApp to make more drastic changes, including enabling on-device fact-checking. They say WhatsApp could put together a list of known misinformation posts that are going viral in a given moment. Since WhatsApp cant read anyones messages, they might base this list on the debunked messages users have sent to fact-checking tip lines, or the most popular lies spreading on Facebook or Twitter. (There is considerable cross-pollination between misinformation on WhatsApp and other platforms.)
Then, WhatsApp could send this most wanted list out to every users phone. When a user sends or receives a message, their phone would check it against the constantly updated list of viral misinformation, and warn the user if theres a match. In this way, proponents argue, WhatsApp can flag at least some false content without snooping on users conversations.
Guaranteeing the privacy of the users is as important as combating misinformation, Garimella and colleagues wrote in an article for the Harvard Kennedy Schools Misinformation Review. In our understanding, both can coexist in parallelour objective is to provide a middle-ground solution which could satisfy those who request actions in combat of misinformation spreading in such platforms, but also keep the privacy of the users phone before it is encrypted.
So far, the idea has met fierce resistance from online privacy advocates like the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), who argue that it would undermine encryption and amount to an unacceptable assault on digital freedoms.Its simply not end-to-end encryption if a companys software is sitting on one of the ends silently looking over your shoulder and pre-filtering all the messages you send, the organization wrote in a blog post.
This isnt just a semantic argument, says EFF strategy director Danny OBrien. Even the smallest erosion of encryption protections gives Facebook a toehold to begin scanning messages in a way that could later be abused, and protecting the sanctity of encryption is worth giving up a potential tool for curbing misinformation. This is a consequence of a secure internet, OBrien says. Dealing with the consequences of that is going to be a much more positive step than dealing with the consequences of an internet where no one is secure and no one is private.
Still, others are holding out hope for a middle path that can bring automatic fact-checking to WhatsApp without trading away too much privacy. WhatsApp might give users a chance to opt out of fact-checking or let them decide which organizations they get fact checks from, suggests Scott Hale, an associate professor of computer science at Oxford.
My vision for misinformation would be more like antivirus software, Hale wrote in an email. I choose to use it; if it detects a virus it alerts me and does nothing without my express permission. Like antivirus software, I would ideally have a choice about what (if any) provider to use.
No matter what WhatsApp does, it will have to contend with dueling constituencies: the privacy hawks who see the apps encryption as its most important feature, and the fact-checkers who are desperate for more tools to curb the spread of misinformation on a platform that counts a quarter of the globe among its users. Whatever Facebook decides will have widespread consequences in a world witnessing the simultaneous rise of fatal lies and techno-authoritarianism.

End-to-End Encryption Coming to Teams – UC Today
Microsoft has revealed that end-to-end encryption will be coming to Microsoft Teams later this year.
At Ignite 2021, the vendor said the encryption will support one-to-one calls for commercial customers. It will be available in preview in the first half of this year.
Microsoft said it will help customers meet their security and compliance requirements by providing an additional option for conducting sensitive online conversations.
For example, a call from an IT admin giving an employee her password over Teams could be conducted with E2EE, Microsoft said.
In the first release, customers will be able to enable the encryption for unscheduled calls.
Microsoft added that further updates would support customers evolving compliance needs and expand to scheduled calls and online meetings.
IT departments will have full discretion over who in an organisation can use encryption.
Nicole Herskowitz, General Manager of Microsoft Teams, said:Regardless of how and where work happens, you shouldnt have to compromise the safety of your people and data.
Think of when you review financial data or discuss a confidential new product launch. You want to ensure that what is discussed stays between people in the conversation.
It is our commitment to continue partnering with our customers to support more secure and trustworthy communications and collaboration
This will be the first time end-to-end encryption has been a feature of Teams, with data currently encrypted in transit and at rest. SharePoint files are protected by SharePoints encryption, with OneNote encryption protecting notes, according to Microsoft.
From a compliance perspective, Teams multi-geo support will also be added in H1 this year.
This will give customers greater control over where their Teams date is stored similar to the controls they already have in place for date in Exchange Online and SharePoint Online.
Microsoft also revealed an invite-only function stops participants who werent directly invited from entering meetings, even if the invite has been forward to them.

Feds warn threats are harder to track as extremists shift to encryption – Axios
Included in a new federal government report on possible extremist attacks on the Capitol is a warning that information on specific threats has become harder to come by in the wake of the Jan. 6 siege amid a shift toward encrypted communications programs.
Why it matters: The finding is likely to put the long-simmering debate over strong encryption back on the front burner.
What they're saying: "Our insight into specific threats is increasingly constrained by the expanding use of secure communications by [domestic violent extremists] following the arrest of individuals involved in the Capitol breach," the FBI and Homeland Security Department said in the report, which Axios covered on Wednesday.
Between the lines: While it is likely that more extremists are using encrypted communications, law enforcement could have political reasons for playing up the threat, given their longstanding desire to see tech companies forced to include backdoors allowing law enforcement access to encoded messages.
The other side: Security experts say backdoors in encryption technologies sooner or later escape the control of law enforcement and end up in the wrong hands, leaving everyone less secure.

SecureMyEmail Offers Free Encrypted Email Service Without the Need to Switch Email Providers – PRNewswire
RESTON, Va., March 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Veteran VPN and internet privacy and security services provider, WiTopia, https://www.witopia.com, announced today they are offering free end-to-end encryption for Gmail, Yahoo, and Microsoft email users through their SecureMyEmail encrypted email service. SecureMyEmail 's unique approach allows users to keep their current email addresses while adding modern security and privacy features.
Despite email's ubiquity as a global communication and data archivingplatform, it has lagged far behind the safety and privacy offered by modern messaging applications.
This exposes personal and business email users to serious and unnecessary risks to their privacy, intellectual property, and the general safety of their communications and saved files. This is evidenced by a seemingly endless series of major email hacks in recent years as well as growing concerns that email providers, and their partners, actively scan emails to capture and sell userdata to third parties.
"We all use email to share and save important personal and business information because it's familiar and easy, but it's actually dangerous," said Bill Bullock, CEO of WiTopia."Email's current security and privacy protections are inadequate and antiquated,"continued Bullock. "If email came out today, nobody would even think of using it."
SecureMyEmail's zero-knowledge architecture ensures encrypted emails and attachments are only viewable by the sender and their recipients. No one, including the user's email provider, internet company, or even Witopia itself, ever has access to the encrypted email or attachments.
This protection remains even when the emails are saved on the email providers' servers. In fact, even if a user has their email account hacked, messages encrypted with SecureMyEmail, will remain protected.
SecureMyEmail's free service offers unlimited use for a single email address that ends in Gmail.com, Yahoo.com, or most Microsoft consumer addresses, including Hotmail, MSN. Live, and Outlook.com.
If a user wishes to encrypt more than one email address, has a different email provider, or uses a custom personal or business domain, they receive a zero-obligation 30-day free trial of SecureMyEmail's paid service.
About WiTopia
WiTopia is an internet privacy and security company based in Reston, Virginia. In early 2005, the launch of our personalVPN service pioneered the use of Virtual Private Network (VPN) technology, then used solely to protect government and business data, to give individuals the ability to connect to the internet privately, securely, and without censorship or geo-restrictions.With the addition of our CloakBox VPN Router and SecureMyEmail encrypted email service, we continue to work to ensure that a secure, private, and censorship-free internet is available to everyone. Today, WiTopia's products and services provide internet freedom, security, and privacy to individuals, businesses, and organizations in more than 190 countries.
