Review: Best tools for email encryption

Email encryptionRecipients of encrypted emails once had to share the same system as the sender. Today, products have a “zero knowledge encryption” feature, which means you can send an encrypted message to someone who isn’t on your chosen encryption service. Today’s products make sending and receiving messages easier, with advances like an Outlook or browser plug-in that gives you nearly one-button encryption. And the products we reviewed have features like setting expiration dates, being able to revoke unread messages or prevent them from being forwarded.

REVIEW: Email encryption has gotten so much better, so you’d be crazy not to use it

I once co-wrote a book on enterprise email where I likened email encryption to a “sucking chest wound.” That was in 1997, when you had to do all the encryption key management on your own, a daunting task to say the least. While things have improved considerably since then, encrypting messages is not as simple as it could be, and requires careful study if you want to have truly private communications that can’t be viewed by your competitors – or your government. In the past, recipients of encrypted emails had to share the same system as the sender, and many email clients were difficult to configure. Today, many products have a “zero knowledge encryption” feature, which means you can send an encrypted message to someone who isn’t on your chosen encryption service. Just provide them a passphrase to decrypt their message and to compose a reply to you, or in some cases they can read the message by just authenticating themselves. After this first communication, your recipient is able to exchange encrypted messages with you quite easily.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here(Insider Story)

Yet Another blog about Segment Routing -Part2 : TI-LFA

Docker Experimental Networking – 1

Networking support in Docker was primitive till now. Single host connectivity was through Linux bridge and there was no native mechanism to connect Containers across hosts. With Pipework, we could do a hacky approach to connect Containers across hosts. Companies like Socketplane, Weave have been working to address this Networking gap. I have written multiple … Continue reading Docker Experimental Networking – 1 →

MikroTik CCR1072-1G-8S+ Review (Part 2) – BGP Performance *** Preview ***

Part 2 is on the way!

It has been a busy week and we have been working hard on CCR1072 testing. The full review for BGP Performance is still a few days away, but here is a sneak preview of some of the testing in the IP ArchiTechs Area 51 Lab.

We put just under 1.7 Million routes across 4 BGP peers into the CCR1072-1G-8S+ and it was fully converged in 2 Minutes and 42 seconds.

Here is a screen shot of the CCR1072-1G-8S+ after converging with 4 full feeds.

Self-Control

"

Even a person on a diet who sensibly avoids coming face-to-face with a piece of chocolate cake will find it hard to control himself if the chocolate cake somehow finds him. Every pastry chef in America understands this, and now neuroscience does, too. … We cannot think down the road when we are faced with the chocolate cake. … We have lost the ability to self-regulate, at all levels of the society.
