Last month old blog post on writing a keygen for nostalgia's sake! avalonswanderer.github.io/blog/2024/keyg…
Last week, I was able to present our most recent work on Widevine at @USENIXSecurity, with a formal analysis of its security based on the EME standard! Do not hesitate to read our full paper here: usenix.org/system/files/u…
2ème prix Mathématiques-Numérique : Félicitations à Gwendal Patat pour sa thèse dirigée par Pierre-Alain Fouque / Institut de Recherche en Informatique et Systèmes Aléatoires (IRISA)
🗓️Demain ! Soutenance de #thèse #doctorat Gwendal PATAT @avalonswanderer, équipe de recherche @spicy_irisa "Bust the Trust: Dissect and Analyze the Security and Privacy Impacts of the Widevine DRM" ➕irisa.fr/date/2023-12/b… cc @RennesUniv @DoctoratBZH @CSchoolRennes
Myself and @doctorow predicted there would be security and privacy problems caused by #W3C standardizing DRM via EME - and there are! EME DRM can uniquely identify Android devices - excellent work by @avalonswanderer at @PET_Symposium #PETS2023 petsymposium.org/2023/files/pap…
Just presented our last paper at #PETS23 about how the Widevine DRM system could be used to track users online though the EME API Paper link: petsymposium.org/2023/files/pap…
