How do certification authorities store their private root keys? I forgot to add that one of our key ceremonies got quite stressful when the transport key would not enter properly. because we couldn't look at what was being typed in by the key holder - we got them to keep on trying in case of input error. Then, lightbulb moment "has the key got an I or the letter O in it?" "yes", which explains the problem because itit was a Hex code! |

Detecting and filtering data over AC power lines? Depends what the local circuit is? I use homeplug at home and that includes about 8 houses on my street. I haven't proven it yet, but I'm pretty sure that the simple passwd system they use is not very strong and easily brute forceable. |

Is there formal guidance that requires all sessions to be logged off when a user changes their password? it's certainly worth taking this particular use case to OWASP and get them to include it in their top 10 notes. |
