zxxma··on An interpreted and deterministic variation of Go for smart contracts
Free meetup in c-base Berlin: https://lu.ma/3yf84hab

Join the gnomes of Gno.land for a relaxed Sunday evening of discussions and drinks, and get to gno us in Berlin's crashed spaceship, the legendary c-base station, Rungestraße 20, Berlin, Germany.

Gno.land is a smart contract platform for writing dApps in Go, but goes beyond this initial scope. Similar to how Tendermint changed the way blockchain developers think about blockchain consensus algorithms, Gno.land will change the way developers think about programming.

zxxma··on ScatterScam: Detect and track counterfeit Android applications
Interesting new tool for those who deploy Android apps on : ScatterScam, developed by Defensive Lab Agency, specialized in privacy and security. DLA has notably worked on the Facebook data usage survey for the WallStreet Journal in 2019, as well as various in-depth studies of large-scale attacks.

The agency is mainly working on large security audits, but has decided to offer a new Saas tool, accessible at an open price for the open source world. This tool is called ScatterScam and automates the detection of counterfeit apps, to counter attacks such as DarkCaracal for example.

This kind of tool enables automated monitoring and protection against this type of attack, which is becoming more and more common and can be disastrous both for "fun" applications and for financial applications, wallets, etc.

The tool is brand new, and deserves to be discovered because it saves a lot of time and energy...!

Enjoy! Cheers Peers!
