Making Intermediaries Liable for Encrypted Content Breaks Trust and Security
In December 2018, the Indian Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeitY) proposed a significant change to its intermediary rules. The draft Information Technology [Intermediaries Guidelines (Amendment) Rules] 2018 seeks to tie tech platforms’ (e.g., social media) protections from liability to an obligation to monitor and filter their users’ content. One of the proposed obligations is to ensure the traceability of messages, even if a service is end-to-end encrypted.
India is just one of many countries around the world experimenting with the idea that Internet intermediaries – specifically social media companies, like Facebook and Twitter – should no longer have immunity from liability for the content shared by their users. Other examples include the U.S. Eliminating Abusive and Rampant Neglect of Interactive Technologies Act of 2020 (the EARN IT Act), and the recent U.S. Executive Order on Preventing Online Censorship.
The motivation for changing the status quo varies, from wanting traceability of messages to counter the spread of disinformation or CSEM, to stopping objectionable content from being spread on social media, to preventing political messages from being labeled (e.g., as “misleading information”). Similarly, the approaches being considered to achieve this vary, ranging from Continue reading

CloudFlare launched yet another service: transfer speed- and latency measurements done from a web browser. While it’s pretty obvious how you could measure transfer speed (start an asynchronous transfer, register for the JavaScript onreadystatechange event to notice out when it has completed, and compute the transfer rate), measuring latency seems like a bit of black magic. After all, you can’t do a ping from a web browser, can you?
VMware Announces Intent to Acquire Lastline
By Tom Gillis, SVP and GM, Networking and Security Business Unit, VMware
EDITORIAL UPDATE: On June 18, 2020 VMware officially closed its acquisition of Lastline. The blog post below has been amended to reflect that announcement.
VMware announced its intent to acquire Lastline, a pioneer in anti-malware research and AI-powered network detection and response, and on June 18, 2020 the acquisition closed. This is an important step forward for VMware’s vision of Intrinsic Security, as it allows us to further take advantage of the intrinsic attributes of our virtualization platform to yield innovative security capabilities. Our aim is not to replicate that which exists today, but rather to build security solutions that we can uniquely deliver, spanning from the heart of the data center to users in a branch office and all the way to mobile users at home or on the road.
In the security industry, the nature of threats changes so rapidly that security technology is constantly being re-invented. In this context, it is not the algorithms per se that matter; it is the people that make the algorithms. Great people build great products, and great products build great companies. And that’s why we are so Continue reading
