Kazakhstan's HTTPS Interception
This post describes our analysis of carrier-level HTTPS interception ordered by the government of Kazakhstan.
The Kazakhstan government recently began using a fake root CA to perform a man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack against HTTPS connections to websites including Facebook, Twitter, and Google. We have been tracking the attack, and in this post, we provide preliminary results from our ongoing research and new technical details about the Kazakh interception system.

Wiretapping: New high-level police working group to formulate "a joint response to the impending massive impacts of 5G"
A new senior police working group will try to advance the police demand to retain wiretapping abilities with 5G technology. However, the technical architecture of 5G makes this extremely difficult, if not impossible. The German Presidency is seeking formal recognition from the Council's Law Enforcement Working Party for this new body, named the 'European Heads of Lawful Interception Units'. As well as EU and Schengen states, the UK will apparently also be involved.
π ππΌ See: NOTE from: Presidency to: Delegations: Lawful Interception - Strengthening EU cooperation (11517/20, LIMITE, 13 October 2020, pdf): https://www.statewatch.org/media/1407/eu-council-wiretapping-lawful-interception-cooperation-11517-20.pdf
The document notes that the "primary aim" of the European Heads of Lawful Interception Units is:
"to facilitate better cooperation and mutual understanding of the needs, challenges and priorities of lawful interception (LI) units within the member states."
The reasons for this new structure are "the impending massive impacts of 5G", which will make traditional methods of telecommunications interception redundant.

Iridium Satellite Decoding Part 2: The Tutorial That Goes Over Your Head, Literally!
Recently I experienced an influx of emails in my inbox requesting help with Iridium decoding. So, I thought I would throw together a one or two part series on how to get started with receiving L-band signals from Iridium satellites using relatively cheap hardware and a couple of free software tools for Linux.
Iridium! It is a low earth orbiting constellation of communication satellites providing voice and data services to the surface of the Earth. Typical applications of the Iridium network are satellite phones and internet connectivity for aircraft and marine vessels.
Towards the end of the video, I demonstrate the ability to decode Iridium voice and SMS transmissions. But, be sure to watch the entire video, because there is heaps of other cool data we can extract with Iridium-Toolkit!
