Thanks for everyone who came and participated today! Good fun, many learns :) Posting this to sudo-discuss as well - join the Cryptoparty mailing list here: https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/cryptoparty Reposted for posterity at: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Cryptoparty =February 2014= This cryptoparty took place on 16 February 2014 with no less than 20 engaged attendees :) ==Areas of Interest== *Mobile security *Backups (especially photos) *Cyanogenmod *Threat Modelling *VOIP *Installing Linux *Installing Lastpass *Running DNSSEC *Playing with alternative, secure email systems *Chat/OTR on Android *Image metadata ==Agenda== *Intros and what you're looking to get out of this cryptoparty *Why security is important *Split up into groups: **Mobile security **Lastpass (password management) **Threat modelling (eg; activists on the street) ==Takeaways== *GPG *Tails is hard to get running on my machine *TextSecure is easy! *Helped people set up secure chats, emails, and texting *Great one-on-one conversations *Learned a good deal about Keypass and got it running with help! *Learned about F Droid - an app store for procuring APKs without going through GOogle Play *Made a self-signed certificate and locked down CalDav *Threat modeling - we're not much better prepared than we were with Occupy. As an iPhone user, I'm pretty screwed no matter what. Need to talk to lawyers re: handing over keys and such *DNSSEC sucks! DNS is already terrible, but DNSSEC makes it worse! Clients don't use it, registrars don't accommodate it, and if you try to use it you're in for a headache. *The latest version of Cyanogenmod forces you to use their cloud for your contacts, which now must be sync'd with a cloud. *Suggestion: Cryptoparty Movie Night! *Suggestion: Linux Install Parties *Feedback: Splitting the group into "let's do this now" and general discussion was a great idea! *Homemade vs. commercial Faraday cages for phones, and general physical security *How to make this knowledge more palatable to the general public? Comics etc; *Best cryptoparty yet! Folks came with specific questions; paired off really smoothly; no uber-techie debates taking place; specific tasks and breakout topics. ==Gratuitous Link Dump== *[https://lastpass.com/ LastPass] for secure password management. *[https://f-droid.org/ F-Droid] *[https://securityinabox.org/en/thuderbird_encryption How to Use Enigmail with Thunderbird] *[http://openphoto.net/ OpenPhoto (facilitates backing up photos to your own server)] *[http://www.frontlinesms.com/ Frontline SMS] *[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.slvn.appops&hl=en AppOps - permissions for Android] ===VOIP Services=== *[http://code.google.com/p/csipsimple/ CSIP Simple] *[http://code.google.com/p/sipdroid/ SIPDroid] ===Custom Android ROMs=== *[http://www.teamdirt.me/ Dirty Unicorns] *[http://paranoidandroid.co/ Paranoid Android]
