EFF is pleased with yesterday’s jury verdict in WhatsApp's lawsuit against NSO Group, the world’s most notorious spyware company. 🧵

Meta suit against Israel's NSO offered rare insight into world of cyberespionage
Israel's NSO Group was handed a $168 million penalty by a federal jury in California on Tuesday for hijacking the servers of WhatsApp in order to hack users of the Meta-owned chat platform on behalf of foreign spy agencies. The case caps a six-year battle between the American social media giant and the surveillance firm. It has also cast a unusual amount of light on the inner workings of the spyware industry.

Powering off your phone or laptop erases the key that unlocks its encryption, and so protects against unwanted searches, EFF’s Will Greenberg told @apnews.com. “This is why a border agent can’t simply turn a device on to use a tool like Cellebrite.”

The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that they’re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.

I constantly get asked what cert to get to land a cybersecurity job. Truth is: certs help, but they’re not everything. Learn to apply the knowledge. Homelab, document on GitHub/blog, and most importantly—network. I’ve been in this field nearly a decade. First cert? CISSP—last year. #Cybersecurity
