Hydrogen's bad security
\nHeader Subtitle

\nLearn what Swivro is and what Swivro does
\nHydrogen Aerospace is a startup France-based aerospace company. We truly like their vision, but when it comes to cybersecurity, they quite literally aren't the one. We contacted Hydrogen on October 24th, 2021, regarding critical security issues on their website. It has taken them over 24 hours to fix one of many security issues, and we have yet to receive any formal response via email. The one simple issue they have fixed involved simply modifying a file on their server that hosts their website, which, as mentioned, took them over a ridiculous 24 hours. After we sent Hydrogen an encrypted email (with the list of security issues), we heard from them on Twitter, saying \"They saw your email and will take corrective actions even if a lot of what you mentioned is already done\". That last part is stupidly incorrect, as we proved that the security issues were still present. They then replied to our reply on Twitter (where we asked if we can expect a response), and the reply said \"The team saw your email, but will not give you update about it for security reason\". This is obvious straight bullsh*t. There should be no reason as to why we cannot receive a formal response from the company stating that they received my email, they understand the severity of these security issues, they are working on fixing them, and they appreciate our report & good intentions. Essentially ignoring our email (we are to assume it has been ignored or is not taken seriously seeing that we have not received a response) with a list of critical security issues that need to be solved is extremely rude and unprofessional. If they really can't give us an update via email due to \"security issue\", then this indicates they have another security issue affecting their email system. Hydrogen Aerospace needs to do better, act more professional, and learn to communicate properly when it comes to critical security issues that need to be solved; because so far we have only heard back from them via an unsecure privacy-violating social media platform (Twitter) where we were provided with a vague and irrational response.
October 29th, 2021 Update: It's been over 6 days now and a security flaw that we reported has still yet to be fixed, and can be fixed in literally less than 5 minutes. We had to respond to the Owner (of hydrogen-aero.com) on Twitter over 5 times aggressively asking for a simple formal response (to our email) stating that they received it and that they are working on fixing the issues. All we got is a pointless delayed response saying \"Thank you\". Please, for your own online safety, stay away from this website with poor security.
October 31st, 2021 Update: It's stupidly ridiculous how this company can't fix a very simple yet dangerous security issue. We don't promote hacking, but go ahead and exploit this issue that they refuse to fix. They are missing a DMARC record on their domain hydrogen-aero.com, so go ahead and send a forged email to whoever you want originating from hi@hydrogen-aero.com containing a (fake) virus link. Their website is also extremely vulnerable to the most simple DDoS attacks (HTTP Flood Attacks). OVH provides transport-level DDoS Protection, but not application-level, we're not sure if they know this or not because their website has no web application firewall (we were able to access the website via various types of bots including fake search engine bots). Hopefully this will force them to fix this issue.
Secure your accounts
\nHeader Subtitle
\nIt's time for you to ensure that all of your accounts on the internet have the greatest security possible, to prevent them from being hacked.
\n \n![\"Mobirise\"](\"@PROJECT_PATH@/assets/images/image-21-1256x837.png\")
\n \n You should secure all of your online accounts, whether it's for Email, Amazon, etc.
\nIt is very important to have good security on all of your online accounts. If you don't have good security and have sensitive information stored on that account, and you're account gets hacked or a data breach occurs, this can lead to identity left, fraud, and much more.

\n \nRecommendations:
\nDDoS attacks are annoying, and we're guessing you're experiencing one judging by the fact that you are reading this. We're here to help you mitigate them. With each layer (7/4/3) comes a different approach in regards to mitigation.
\nStep 1: Use Secure Passwords
\nYou should be using a different password for every online account you have, and the password should not be memorable. Your password should be at least 16 characters, should be a combination of lowercase letters, capital letters, and numbers. Using symbols (special characters like ! @ # $ % ^ & etc) in your password usually helps strengthen your password, but most bots that attempt to crack your password try doing so by including symbols in the password cracker bot. If the bot is trying to crack your password while including symbols, but your password in reality does not have symbols, you would be wasting the hacker's time and they wouldn't know it. We recommend using symbols for most of your passwords, but you can also create passwords without symbols just for some accounts, as it may give you better overall security.
\nStep 2: Use Two-Factor-Authentication
\n2FA is most commonly used via an authenticator app as authenticator apps allow for maximum security. An authenticator app is usually installed on a smartphone and generates a 6-digit code every 30 seconds. You can then use this 6-digit code, during its period of validity, to access your online account. Each account for each website saved to your authenticator app generates it's own unique 6-digit code. The codes are generated using a private key that is shared only between the website you are using and your device, as well as the current time. The only requirement is that the clock on your smartphone is not out of sync. We recommend the Aegis Authenticator App as it is open source. In the unlikely event of a hacker cracking your account password(s), they will not be able to successfully login without having physical access to your phone to see the 6-digit codes.
\nMonero Wallet
\nThe name speaks for itself, Monero Wallet is a wallet for the Monero cryptocurrency. Monero Wallet, like Electrum, also lacks many features when compared to Exodus. Monero supports Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X, with no support for Android or iOS. If you're looking for a Monero-only wallet for mobile devices, you can have a look at Cake Wallet (cakewallet.com), but we still recommend Exodus instead. Check out Monero Wallet at getmonero.org.
