Sustainable aviation fuels made from sources other than fossil fuels have the potential to reduce emissions by up to 80 percent, UK researchers have found. Boffins from the National Centre for Atmospheric Science and the University of Manchester testing various blends of traditional jet fuel and SAF said preliminary data shows that airline travel might not such a guilty trip over pollution due to more efficient engine controls.
In a preprint paper, "One Protocol to Rule Them All? On Securing Interoperable Messaging," University of Cambridge doctoral candidate Jenny Blessing and security engineering professor Ross Anderson observe that the DMA is now law in Europe and messaging gatekeepers will need to comply, though it won't be easy. "Designing a system capable of securely encrypting and decrypting messages and associated data across different service providers raises many thorny questions and practical implementation compromises," they say in their paper.
Boffins based in China and the UK have devised a telecom network attack that can expose call metadata during VoLTE/VoNR conversations. Researchers Zishuai Cheng and Baojiang Cui, with the Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, and Mihai Ordean, Flavio Garcia, and Dominik Rys, with the University of Birmingham, have found a way to access encrypted call metadata - VoLTE activity logs that describe call times, duration, and direction for mobile network conversations.
