Comment on Slack Security Incidentparent

Comments

I strongly suggest not transmitting secure information or files via Slack or any other medium that retains or broadcasts (push notifications, email alerts) data.

Given the massive and escalating fines over customer data hacks and leaks I suspect we will see laws requiring data retention going head to head with consumer privacy laws. Given that even Jeff Bezos can’t keep his communications secure, the outlook for infosec consultants is fantastic. If anti-encryption laws start appearing on top of all of this, it’s going to be an absolute bonanza.
