Half of the 6 Million Internet-Facing FTP Servers Lack Encryption

Half of 6 million exposed FTP servers run unencrypted protocols from 1971, wide open to interception of files, credentials, and traffic. Enterprises and users face routine exploitation via this legacy infrastructure, amplifying risks in an era of pervasive surveillance. Legacy tech vulnerabilities sustain a shadow economy of data theft, underscoring the digital divide between secured elites and exposed masses.

EU Moves to Write Post-Quantum Cryptography Directly into NIS2 Law

European Commission proposes embedding post-quantum cryptography mandates into NIS2 directive, shifting quantum threats from periphery to core EU cybersecurity law. This forces critical infrastructure operators to adopt quantum-resistant encryption preemptively, hardening networks against nation-state decryption races. Implications expose legacy systems to harvest-now-decrypt-later attacks, escalating the arms race in institutional cyber defenses.
