Cybersecurity expert Eva Galperin helps debunk (and confirm!) some common myths about cybersecurity. Is the government watching you through your computer camera? Does Google read all your Gmail? Does a strong password protect you from hackers? Will encryption keep my data safe? Eva answers all these questions and much more. Google stopped this practice in…

And the governmental agencies DO have the authority to block the detection of their spy software.

She clearly has no idea what she’s talking about. Yes, legally the government can’t spy on you without a warrant, but the entire point of the Snowden leaks is that’s exactly what they’re doing, they’re spying on innocent people without a warrant as a part of a bulk collection program called PRISM. Privacy _is_ dead. At least for most people. Everything you do online is recorded and used for all kinds of purposes like marketing things to you and indeed spying on you. Again, Google is a part of the PRISM program, the government has access to your emails without the need for a subpoena. Read the Snowden leaks. There’s more than just two areas where encryption is used. Encryption is also used to safely store data on servers. Passwords will often be stored using a hashing-algorithm, which is a cryptographic algorithm which only works one way, so the information encrypted can’t be decrypted.

Sorry Eva, suggesting the IT manager in an organisation can’t see your HTTPS traffic is only half the story. If you’re using a corporate-provided laptop and you have either a corporate proxy or certain corporate security products installed, the chain of trust is less trustworthy.
Many organisations will commonly install a trusted corporate certificate authority which the user’s computer will not flag as untrusted when using HTTPS.

Myth: Privacy is dead. I agree that it is dead, but that we need to stop trying to fight it, but rather regulate it. Which is what she gets at with determining the digital footprint, and what companies can and cannot use. The fact is when you interact with a website, they will gather as much information as they can about you, just like when you visit a grocery, they will track what you buy. A good business model tracks their users. The idea that we can live a life without being tracked is foolish. We need to instead tie the hands of those with power, and those that do track as to what they can do with that information.

The comments on encryption in transport were misleading…just because a site’s URL includes “https” does not necessarily mean that other people cannot read/intercept your traffic between your browser and the website. A notable example of this can be in a business setting where a proxy is set up. Your employer may very well have their proxy certificate installed on your computer such that a website will still show trusted, https, etc, but they are able to decrypt, scan, save, etc all of your traffic, then re-encrypt it and forward it on to the website’s servers.
