Ricochet is a high-speed tunneling VPN protocol that operates as a Tor client and offers strong anonymity protection. It bounces our traffic around to different parts of the globe and encrypts it so spies and hackers can't see what we're up to online. Ricochet might be an option for those looking for even higher levels of encryption than Tor provides. If you know anything about security, you'll probably notice we've been beating the drum on encryption —but who would have thought that the internet may in fact be inherently insecure? It's hard to believe but in his talk at Toorcon 18, Dan Kaminsky made this bold claim. Using a novel and highly sophisticated attack, Kaminsky takes advantage of fundamental design flaws in the internet to remotely execute code on any webserver. The attack is very complex, but the simplified explanation is that it works by injecting maliciously crafted requests into webpages that then get processed by vulnerable webservers. The site has been added to the list of dangerous sites on Google Chrome (1/25/2014). A user on Reddit reported that Tails OS has been removing Whonix-Workstation Version 9 from their download page (1/25/2014). The Tor Project has responded with this statement: "The Tor Project did not change the website and did not request it be removed. We don't remove software from the website, and we especially do not censor sites for carrying sensitive user-supplied content. Indeed, we explicitly ask users to provide such content." Several users on Reddit reported receiving a blank Tor Browser Bundle package (1/25/2014). The Tor Project has responded with this statement: "The Tor Browser Bundle has not been tampered with. There is no vulnerability in TBB that allows arbitrary code to be run without user permission. The binaries included in the bundles are identical to those the project produces independently, which is why they can be audited." There have been several changes in the past few months that have rattled confidence in Tor as an anonymity tool. The first is the recent news about the Tor Browser Bundle 0.2.8a which has been removed from the project's website. While there was no evidence that an attacker had modified this version of TBB, the fact that multiple users made claims that they were able to install unsigned code on TBB aroused suspicion about how secure it really was. There have also been reports of problems with Orbot and Orfox VPN clients as well as a number of reports from Whonix users who believe their Whonix-Gateway has been compromised. In this article, we're going to describe each of these events in detail and offer our opinion on whether or not those problems point to a larger problem with Tor itself. The Whonix developers have just announced Mantis, a new Whonix version that builds on the features and fixes of the v15 distribution. The most visible change is that this release uses GNU Linux instead of Debian, which means there is no longer a need to flash the distribution to run it. This also means that Mantis will use an older kernel than v15.0, so users will need to flash their system's firmware for this release as well. The big feature of Mantis is POTENTIALLY increased security . This is because the distribution has been changed so that there are now 2 optional bridges, "Whonix14" and "Whonix15" which are now used by default. cfa1e77820
