Communication app The teleport signal, which is at least used for messages of documentation protected by a senior official of the Trump administration, has already faced violations that clarify the security flaws, and in turn, a parent’s company has a source of information. Now, according to Detailed new results From journalist and security researcher Maca Lee, TM signal archive features mainly damage the flagship security guarantee of the signal, which send messages between the app and the user’s message, without ending encryption, thus accessing users’ communication to telecommunication.
Lee conducted a detailed analysis of the TM signal’s Android source code to evaluate the app design and security. 404 with the support of the media, he had Were previously reported On a weekend TM signal, which revealed some user messages and other data – a clear indication that at least some data was sent un -encrypted, or as a simple text, at least some time was sent within the service. It seems that it contradicts teleport marketing claims that the TM signal “offers encryption from mobile phones to corporate archives from end.” But Lee says his latest results show that the TM signal is not encrypted from the end and that the company can access the contents of consumer chats.
Lee tells the wired, “The fact is that there are simple text logs.”
Teleport is an Israeli company that last year completed its acquisition through a US -based digital communication archive company Samarish. Telemade is a federal contractor, but consumer apps are the ones they offer Not approved The US Government’s Federal Risk and Permit Management Program, or use under the Fed RAMP.
Samarish did not return the wired requests to comment about Lee’s results. The company said on Monday, “The teleport is investigating a potential security incident. After detecting, we worked fast to control it and engaged in an external cyberciction firm to support our investigation.”
Lee’s results are probably important to all teleport users, but it is important that the TM signal was used by President Donald Trump’s now Farmer National Security Advisor Mike Walts. He was photographed using the service during a cabinet meeting last week, and the photo showed that he was talking to other top officials, including JD Venus, Vice President of the National Intelligence Director of the National Intelligence, and the US Secretary of State. The TM is compatible with the signal signal and will expose the messages sent to someone using the TM signal, whether all participants are using it or using some real signal app.
Lee found that the TM signal is designed to save signal communication data in a local database on a user device and then send it to the archive server to maintain long -term. He says messages are sent directly to the archive server, apparently as a simple text chat login in cases testing by Lee. By analyzing, he says, “The certified archive server has access to simple text chat logs.”
The hack contains data taken from the Tele Message archive server, chat logs, usernames and simple text passwords, and even private encryption keys.
A Line On Tuesday, US Senator Ron Weden called on the Justice Department to investigate the teleport, and alleged that it was “a serious threat to US national security.”
“The government agencies who have adopted the Tele Message Archiver have chosen the worst possible option,” Winden wrote. “They have given their customers something that looks like a signal and feels, the most reliable safe communication app. But instead, senior government officials have been given a poor signal knocking, which poses a number of serious security and counter -war risks.
