Hush Line: The Open-Source Platform for Anonymous Whistleblowing October 2025: European Cybersecurity Month October 1 marked the start of European Cybersecurity Month, an annual awareness campaign that offers practical guidance to EU citizens on how to stay safe online. The campaign is coordinated by the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) and the European Commission, with support from EU member states and hundreds of partners across Europe and beyond. This year’s theme is particularly relevant: combating phishing and social engineering. Currently, 60% of cyberattacks start with phishing, an attempt to steal information or gain access to systems through deceptive messages or fraudulent websites. The campaign’s motto, “Cybersecurity is a Shared Responsibility,” emphasizes a fundamental concept: cybersecurity is a collective responsibility. ...
Web Key Directory: the technology that every email domain should adopt to ensure the authenticity and security of communications - TL;DR Why Encryption Is the Foundation of Digital Privacy Encryption is the technology that transforms readable information into incomprehensible code for anyone without the decryption key. It’s what protects banking transactions, government communications, and healthcare data. In the context of the European GDPR, strong encryption also enables the transfer of personal data outside the EU: when data is properly encrypted, individuals are no longer identifiable, simplifying regulatory compliance for international communications. Yet, paradoxically, the world’s most used communication technology – email – remains largely unencrypted, exposing billions of daily messages to potential interception. This article explores how the protocol Web Key Directory (WKD) finally solves this paradox, making email encryption simple and automatic: just as we now visit secure websites (HTTPS) without doing anything special, with WKD emails are also encrypted automatically without any user intervention. ...

The EU Digital Omnibus: Europe’s Bold Move to Simplify Digital Regulation The European Commission launched today an ambitious initiative that could fundamentally reshape how businesses interact with EU digital regulations. The Digital Omnibus, part of the broader Digital Package on Simplification, represents the most significant attempt yet to address what many consider the growing complexity burden of Europe’s digital regulatory landscape. The Problem Brussels Finally Acknowledges After years of stakeholder complaints about regulatory fragmentation and implementation complexity, the Commission has officially recognized what industry has been saying: Europe’s digital rulebook has become unwieldy. The call for evidence document is surprisingly candid about the challenges, noting that “multiple horizontal, and sector-specific rules were adopted, leading to complexity in implementation, fragmentation in their application at the national level and misalignment in the enforcement approaches.” ...
