RoguehorseGood Morning!17:45
pleia2hey there Roguehorse17:45
rwwhowdy17:45
RoguehorseHey! What's happening17:46
pleia2work work17:46
Roguehorsealways17:46
Roguehorsepleia2: How do you like the traveling?17:47
pleia2love it17:47
pleia2I'm home for a whole month right now, not sure what to do with myself :)17:48
RoguehorseAh, I've never really been a fan of globetrotting - but I know some people really dig it17:51
RoguehorseBefore I was married and had kids I thought about it and did some on my own - but now I stay close to home.17:53
RoguehorseCompany covers all the tab right?17:53
pleia2pretty much17:53
pleia2I have to get approvals for everything, and I do sometimes go on my own dime when the budget is tight17:54
RoguehorseOh, I've known some companies make people use their own dime then submit expense reports for comp17:55
RoguehorseIDK, something about that doesn't seem right17:55
Roguehorseespecially if it's a requirement17:56
Roguehorsebut, each company has their policy17:57
RoguehorseHas everyone heard about the new iOS8 is now fully encrypted? Even subpoena can't get data out.18:00
RoguehorseI think that's the right way to do things these days.18:01
RoguehorseLots of accounts going overseas because of data security issues...lots of cutbacks as a result18:09
rwwyes, i read it on my Android that has had full-disk encryption for a while18:10
pleia2I book through the company booking service and have a company credit card, but I'd be ok either way (plus, I'd get more credit card points my way!)18:10
Roguehorse:-)18:10
Roguehorsepleia2: Your company does it right...not all though18:11
pleia2reminds me, I owe them some receipts18:11
Roguehorseyeah, don't want to slack on that18:11
Roguehorserww: Having device encryption is one thing, cloud storage and transmission (including meta) is a different deal18:13
rwwI go with the "if it's on the 'cloud' it's doomed" philosophy, but I guess I'm not the intended audience ;)18:13
RoguehorseI heard about spideroak from GRC and looks interesting: https://spideroak.com/?utm_expid=14446725-6.kmcEPnsiSaevBSQb7kScng.0&utm_referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Furl%3Fsa%3Dt%26rct%3Dj%26q%3D%26esrc%3Ds%26source%3Dweb%26cd%3D1%26ved%3D0CCAQFjAA%26url%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fspideroak.com%252F%26ei%3DxzobVKnZJIbtoATX94KoCg%26usg%3DAFQjCNFbWLVWburoPM_k3vR2Jquq8ou8qw%26sig2%3DMzD1tnzYx0QsV0yZH9MBbw%26bvm%3Dbv.75774317%2Cd.cGU%26cad%3Drjt18:14

RoguehorseWell, the thing is, the number of people who are using cloud these days incliding iCloud, Google Drive, etc..18:15
rwwYep. I was hoping some of them would change their mind on that after the iCloud photo nonsense, but I expect they won't now. Sigh.18:16
RoguehorsePlus, beyond storage is transfer...gpg can encrypt the plain text but not the meta18:17
Roguehorsethe new iOS8 I guess will handle all that, so even if it's cracked, it's just noise18:18
pleia2rww: what do you mean uploading my data to someone else's server for free doesn't mean my data is safe>?!!!11118:19
pleia2but I get it, technology is hard and people are trusting18:19
Roguehorsenot so much anymore! This is the 'post Snowden' era18:20
rwwyour average high schooler doesn't care18:20
Roguehorserww: no, most likely not18:21
Roguehorsemost of this revolves around economicsw and the concept that companies are having less confidence of their data held on US soil18:21
pleia2I don't care either tbh18:22
Roguehorseeh, it's a trade off for sure..I usually tell people only to use the cloud for stuff that wouldn't bother you if it got stolen18:23
rwwpleia2: sure, but you're educated as to the upsides and downsides, at least18:23
Roguehorseor, pre-client encrypt private material whichrequires them to learn how to use a key pair18:24
pleia2yeah, I just hate privacy18:24
RoguehorseI know, but the current trend is to make it so easy the "average Joe" no longer needs to know how to do it18:25
Roguehorseprivacy is a PITA (at least at the moment) - average people find encryption confusing and difficult to use - but they want it18:27
Roguehorselots of tech coming down the pipeline to have it as the "default" without requiring user interaction18:28
rww*nod*18:29
rwwif it works, I'll be very happy :)18:29
ianorlintesting if encryption works is not easy18:30
rwwespecially if it's closed source18:30
blitzencryption is so easy, people download the unauthorized packages and boom their hard drive is encrypted and all the IT staff loves them18:34
rwwhaven't come across that at work yet. i expect it's a matter of time18:34
Roguehorseeasy is a matter of perspective18:35
Roguehorsethe greater majority of the GP thinks it's complicated - but they depend on the nerds to make it easy for them - that's where were at18:36
Roguehorsesecurity is becoming a "real" concern - look at what Zuckerberg is doing with his platform right now18:38
Roguehorseenforcing policy18:38
Roguehorsepeople want "point and click" or "checkbox" easy...and that's not so easy18:39
Roguehorsemore and more we're seeing people wanting TNO security for their data:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trust_no_one_%28internet_security%2918:43

darthrobotTitle: [Why Google is Hurrying the Web to Kill SHA-1]18:48
