    In contrast, companies like Standard Notes actually uses their own home-built encryption library, which is why it's a bit more critical that they go through these audits more often and quickly than others. And despite the audits, this home-brewed encryption library puts them at a much bigger risk, due to the fact that it's never going to be as thoroughly battle tested as an open industry-standard encryption like OpenPGP, used by much larger companies like Google, Protonmail, etc.

  • How to do E2EE in the Browser correctly if even possible?
    2 projects | /r/crypto | 23 Aug 2021
    When Google was looking at implementing E2E mail via a browser plugin, it gave up in part because of the difficulties of doing it right. They published the library and documentation, but the more valuable part was the threat model. In it they examine the assets to protect, threat sources both inside and outside the threat model, UI threats, message threats, key-related threats, cryptographic threats, and other threats. It's an excellent walk-through of just how difficult it is to do general encryption right, and why doing it in the browser is so hard.
