As non-disclosure agreements expire, new details emerge on the infamous 2011 RSA Hack, which threatened the future of a security cornerstone. From Andy Greenberg at Wired:

The piece lays out an interesting tale of success and failure when faced with the consequences of a catastrophic security intrusion.
Baratunde Thurston helps explain the EFF's goal to help encrypt the web by moving all websites from non-secure HTTP to the more secure HTTPS.
HTTPS better protects against eavesdropping of traffic, pickpocketing of passwords, and hijacking and alteration of content. The protocol makes the web just a little safer. More and more web sites have moved to HTTPS, but still half the sites people visit everybody are non-secure. Moving HTTPS is a step in the right direction for site owners, and the EFF is helping to make the move easy.
The tools that the EFF provide to help in a more secure web are found on the HTTPS Everywhere page and the Certbot page.
