Standard security mechanisms are inadequate for the purpose of anti-forensics. Nation-States and Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups do not play by the rules. All bets are on that no matter how hardened your system kernel is or how safe your OPSEC precautions may be, there is always a point of compromise. An unpatched vulnerability is waiting to be exploited against your system. If your device is emitting traffic, all bets are on that with enough resources, these groups will be able to decrypt the traffic. Maybe it won't be today, but it certainly will be in the not-so-distant future. If you are a target, chances are that you are already compromised. Use the masses as cover; open deviation is ill-advised.
## Minimimal Attack Surface
## Minimal Attack Surface
While living in the "end of trust," we must follow standard system hardening practices. These practices emphasize the reduction of software and hardware needed throughout the operation. There is no purpose of strong keys in cryptography if the underlying system operations have compromised you via keylogging and other variants of malware. You can create an intricate system of firewalls, intrusion prevention/detection systems (IPS/IDS), event log management to detect compromises, proxies, virtual private networks, TOR, I2P, but your must recognize the underlying fingerprint of these systems. Minimal architecture should not be limited to solely software and hardware, but also the signals being used; treat all signals as hostile. On mobile devices, consider the different Cellular protocols such as 3-5G variants and LTE. In times of unrest, the state has the power to disable and manipulate the protocols available for use. Most modern devices allow you to select settings such as LTE only or whitelist specific towers. You may go offline in times of unrest, but at least they aren't leveraging legacy protocols, potentially engaging in packet injection, and redirecting your device like a good puppet following dictates of its puppeteer.
