1984 was yesterday: Why we need open-source tools today

Apple Strengthens Security for Older Devices with Zero-Day Patches
Apple has rolled out critical security updates that backport fixes for actively exploited zero-day vulnerabilities to older versions of its operating systems, alongside updates for the latest stable versions of iOS, iPadOS, and macOS.
These updates are aimed at protecting older devices, many of which would not typically receive these patches. Apple’s commitment to security is evident in its efforts to ensure that users with older devices still have access to essential protections.
Key Vulnerabilities Addressed:
CVE-2025-24200: A flaw that allowed mobile forensic tools to disable 'USB Restricted Mode' on locked devices. Fixed in iOS 18.3.1 and iPadOS 18.3.1 (released February 2025).
CVE-2025-24201: A WebKit flaw that allowed attackers to break out of the Web Content sandbox, which was exploited in highly sophisticated attacks. Fixed in iOS 18.3.2, iPadOS 18.3.2, and macOS Sequoia 15.3.2 (released March 2025).
CVE-2025-24085: A privilege escalation flaw in Apple’s Core Media framework. Fixed in iOS 18.3, iPadOS 18.3, macOS Sequoia 15.3 (January 2025).
Additionally, Apple has released a series of updates for its latest software, including iOS 18.4, iPadOS 18.4, macOS Sequoia 15.4, and Safari 18.4, addressing dozens of security flaws.
These patches help mitigate a wide range of vulnerabilities, from privilege escalation to arbitrary code execution, ensuring both older and newer devices remain protected.
Why this matters:
Zero-day vulnerabilities are particularly dangerous because they can be exploited before the software developer has a chance to release a fix.
Apple’s efforts to backport fixes for older devices ensure that users who may not be upgrading their hardware regularly still benefit from essential security protections.
Make sure to update your devices to ensure you're protected from these actively exploited threats.
Important Update in Email Security
Google has just announced a new End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) feature for Gmail business users, making it easier to send encrypted emails to any recipient.
With this update, businesses can now send fully encrypted emails to anyone, regardless of the email service they use, without having to worry about the complexities of certificates. While businesses can still configure the S/MIME protocol for digitally signed and encrypted messages, the new Gmail model offers a much simpler and more accessible solution.
Key Benefits:
Encryption is easily activated, requiring minimal setup and effort for both IT teams and end users.
The solution ensures better control over data security and privacy.
Fully compatible with any Gmail user, whether business or personal, enabling secure email communication across platforms.
For recipients who don’t use Gmail, they will receive a link to view the email securely, without needing a Google account.
This feature is powered by Client-Side Encryption (CSE), which allows businesses to manage their own encryption keys, ensuring that data is encrypted before being sent to Google’s servers. This method is crucial for meeting regulatory requirements such as HIPAA, data sovereignty, and other compliance standards.
CSE has been available to select Google Workspace customers since 2023 and is now expanding to Gmail on the web. By the end of this year, any Gmail user will be able to send and receive end-to-end encrypted emails.
With this update, Gmail is better equipped to ensure privacy and security in business communications.
