This is a Reminder to Check How Well You Protect Your Data
The Blockchain brought many innovations to the world,
but it is the innovations that are built on top of that
which I find most interesting. One such movement is
being championed by Crypviser for Blockchain encryption.
THE NEED TO PROTECT DATAData is who we are. We are social security numbers,
credit scores, and passport numbers. We are social
media users, ecommerce consumers, and medical patients.
To computers, to companies, and to governments,
these data are what make up individuals and groups.
This is why it is so important to protect your data,
because it means you are protecting you.
With the incessant attacks on net neutrality and consumer
data protection laws, coupled with criminal attacks on
personal data, protecting data has never been more important.
If you do not already, please take this as an opportunity to start.
WAYS TO PROTECT YOURSELFVPNsA VPN is a Virtual Private Network. What this does is it
extends a private network over a public network,
essentially meaning that those connected to the VPN
could be able to file share and interact with other nodes
of the VPN as if it were on a local network.
These are used for secure connections and circumventing
geolocative restriction. Some exit nodes dump out traffic
in a country with very strict internet privacy laws to further
protect their users.
Often these cost money, and if you have a free one they
might be selling your information or your connection as
an exit node -so any dumped traffic would look like it came
from your connection, which could be problematic-.
Some VPN providers can have outdated protocols and others
are just not that secure at all. The fact that there are any that
still save traffic logs is in and of itself worrying.
Also the United States has ruled that by simply running
a VPN you could be subject to having a warrant issued
in your name. VPNs are one of the most common and
useful ways to protect yourself, but they are not infallible.
TSL/SSLTSL and SSL -usually only referred to as SSL- are cryptographic
protocols that secure connections between two or more
computing applications. Email, instant messaging, and
Voice over IP (VoIP) all use some sort of SSL to secure
data integrity and some level of privacy.
There have been many attacks against SSL protocols and these
have shown the security exploits that can be used to undermine
the privacy and data integrity of its users.
CrypviserCrypviser is a project that aims to shake up the way we think
about information security for ourselves and for business.
They will offer both social and business solutions to encrypt
and protect not only the data and content being exchanged,
but also the privacy of the individuals.
Their messenger feature will allow for completely private and
anonymous text, voice, and video chatting backed up by the
blockchain and stellar encryption.
They will also be developing CVPay as a native part of their service.
This allows for the transfer of funds -via CVCoin,
their token- in a similarly private and secure way.
Files within the Crypviser ecosystem will also enjoy the same
robust security that is afforded to chats and payments.
Even if a device is physically damaged or compromised,
the files will remain encrypted and safe.
Protecting yourself means protecting your data. Take the
time to review how you go about your personal infosec,
then improve those.
