Researchers from the French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation (INRIA) and Nanyang Technological University (Singapore) have developed an advanced attack method on the SHA-1 algorithm, significantly simplifying the creation of two different documents with the same SHA-1 hashes. The essence of the method is to reduce the operation of full collision search in SHA-1 to a collision attack with a given prefix, where a collision occurs with […]
Google has finally lifted the veil on the Fuchsia OS project—a mysterious operating system that has been around for about three years but has yet to be made publicly available. It first came to light in August 2016 without any official announcement. Initial data appeared on GitHub, and around that time, theories emerged that it could be a universal OS that would replace […]
We received a request for cloud services. We estimated what would be required from us and sent back a list of questions for clarification. After analyzing the answers, we realized that the client wants to store personal data classified as level two protection in the cloud. We responded: "You have second-level personal data; sorry, we can only create a private cloud." A […]
First of all, when starting to work with a new dataset, it is important to understand it. For this, it is necessary to determine, for example, the range of values that the variables can take, their types, and to find out about the number of missing values. The pandas library provides us with many useful tools for conducting exploratory data analysis (EDA). However, before using them, it is usually […]

The security and performance levels of the application are also improving across all platforms. Recently, the company started working on a new feature that will prevent websites from blocking the 'Back' button. As is well known, there are pages that make it difficult to return in the browser […]
Hello, dear Habr users! I want to warn you that this is my first publication, so please let me know about any issues, typos, or anything else that you notice. This morning, as usual, I turned on my laptop and started leisurely surfing in my favorite Firefox (release 66.0.3 x64). Suddenly, the morning ceased to be leisurely—at one unfortunate moment, a message popped up stating […]
In the past, certificates often expired because they needed to be updated manually, and people simply forgot to do it. With the advent of Let’s Encrypt and automatic renewal procedures, this problem seemed to be solved. However, a recent incident with Firefox shows that it remains relevant. Unfortunately, certificates continue to expire. For those who missed this story, in […]

At the recent Google I/O developer conference, Google announced that this year's Chromebooks will support the Linux operating system. This option existed before, but now the process is much simpler and available 'out of the box'. Last year, Google started providing the capability to run Linux on some laptops with […]
Security researcher Willem de Groot reported that in a recent infrastructure breach, attackers were able to inject malicious code into the web analytics system Picreel and the open platform for generating interactive web forms Alpaca Forms. The JavaScript code substitution led to the compromise of 4,684 websites using these systems on their pages (1,249 — Picreel and 3,435 — Alpaca Forms). The injected […]
