When you connect to a public Wi-Fi network, your Android phone is susceptible to the same sorts of attacks as a laptop—as demonstrated by the Android data vulnerability exposed a few days ago. The ...

The OpenSSH project is getting protection against side-channel attacks that are known to leak data from a computer's memory, and allow malicious threat actors to steal sensitive information. The ...

Most IT pros realize that using Telnet to manage routers, switches, and firewalls is insecure. Transmitted in clear text across a network, Telnet traffic basically publicizes any login usernames and ...

Furthering Microsoft’s push to support open source, the company has announced that it plans to add Secure Shell (SSH) support to Windows in the future. SSH is a protocol that allows users to access ...

Bottom line: Security researchers have devised a new way to steal cryptographic keys in Secure Shell (SSH) computer-to-server communication. Compromised SSH connections could allow bad actors to ...

Academic researchers developed a new attack called Terrapin that manipulates sequence numbers during the handshake process to break the SSH channel integrity when certain widely-used encryption modes ...

The Terrapin Attack is an attack that violates the integrity of the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol by manipulating sequence numbers during the handshake process in the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol, which ...

Cybersecurity researchers from the Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, have discovered a way to crack OpenSSH connections and effectively break SSH channel integrity. In an academic paper published ...

Most IT pros know that using Telnet to manage routers, switches, and firewalls is not exactly a security best practice. Instead, the accepted alternative to Telnet's lack of security is Secure Shell ...
