Warum kein Mensch Verschlüsselung versteht und froh ist, wenn man ihn damit in Ruhe lässt

Session Abstract

Unsere Sicherheit hängt am seidenen Faden, weil sie fast vollständig auf Verschlüsselung beruht. Die versteht aber niemand. Und weil sie niemand versteht, lassen sich alle mit Schlagworten abspeisen und akzeptieren Unsicherheit. Kennst du das? "Unser Netzwerk ist sicher, wir haben ja VPN." - "Ich brauche ein verschlüsseltes Backup, damit Ransomware keine Chance hat." - "Die Cloud-Daten sind sicher, weil alles komplett TLS-verschlüsselt ist." Warum du dabei tief durchatmen solltest, schauen wir uns in der Session gemeinsam an. Wir beleuchten Grundlagen, Prinzipien und Missverständnisse. Und wir sehen uns an, warum man niemandem trauen sollte, der Verschlüsselung für ein einfaches Konzept hält. Aber Vorsicht: Es könnten hinterher Gewissheiten in Frage stehen ...

Nils Kaczenski

Nils Kaczenski started his journey into IT in 1983 when he purchased his C64 after a short but very intense phase of longing. Sleepless nights with BASIC spaghetti code and peek-poke-posters were to follow. Since the mid-90's Nils has been working as a consultant for Windows-based networks, giving technical and strategical advice to companies and IT pros. Acknowledging his community engagement, Microsoft have awarded him as MVP each year since 2003. Nils lives in Hannover, Germany, with his family. He works there as CTO with an IT service provider. He focuses on IT security, digitalization and IT strategy. Apart from his official work, Nils is known as a technical writer and as an award-winning speaker at conferences and community events. His IT author blog faq-o-matic.net that he runs with more than 100 authors has been one of the most important IT community resources since 2005.
