Schneier is a well-regarded expert on cryptography, but outside of that domain, he appears to have very little relevant experience.

Not necessarily. The enclave's symmetric keys are bound to its identity, which is a hash of the memory and permission bits before the enclave starts to run. If the malware modifies the public key in the binary before it is loaded into

TrustZone (by itself) doesn't have the attestation or memory encryption features of SGX. On the other hand, I believe TrustZone can reach outside itself. TrustZone is more comparable to Intel's SMM.

The OS can't lie because it is unable to generate the same keys the hardware uses. Without those keys, the enclave can't decrypt whatever sensitive data it sealed earlier.

Isn't that the exact threat model that the CERT researchers followed? The Tor Project found only 115 relays (6.4%) in the network that was emitting the signal. That's not the aforementioned Globally Passive Adversary. So by their

SELinunx and SE for Android are two examples of NSA doing defensive work recently. Also NSA's Information Assurance Directorate puts out guidance[1]. But as to the level of investment in offense versus defense, you'll have to draw

If TFA is meant to say San Franciscans should be grateful for the gentrification of the city, then it's pretty insulting, and frankly, emblematic of the entitlement and lack of awareness in the tech community. If anything, TFA proves t

What evidence do you have that this guy is irresponsible, akin to blowing $60 on a bar tab instead of saving for rainy days? It's easy to argue against straw men.

At this point, you and I are just speculating on which outcome is more likely. I'm arguing there are probably significant data controls. You're arguing that the data was accessible but not leaked because he was an idealist. Until

I disagree. Training documents are meant to be shared to a much wider audience than the developers of the system. Data coming from the system is meant to be used in a report.

There's no evidence the blueprints of PRISM were leaked, just training slides for analysts. There's also no evidence that actual surveillance data was leaked. This particular slippery slope argument seems weaker because one would

I'm not a big fan of this development. There's a lot of software developers out there who work on projects for their employers that can't be open sourced. It also places those who lack free time to hack on code in their off hours (perhaps d
