Ethical hacker releases tool to exploit Microsoft's Recall AI, says it's not 'rocket science'
Microsoft's Windows Recall AI feature hasn't launched yet but it's already a target.
www.zdnet.com
Ethical hacker Alex Hagenah has launched a tool, called TotalRecall, that shows how anyone with enough know-how and the right tools could steal the recalls saved on a Windows machine and access that data, encryption-free, on a target device. According to Hagenah, whose work was reported on earlier by Wired, he analyzed Windows Recall and found that the tool -- which takes screen captures of a Windows machine every five seconds -- stores the data completely unencrypted on the user's computer.
"TotalRecall copies the databases and screenshots and then parses the database for potentially interesting artifacts," Hagenah wrote in a GitHub posting about TotalRecall. "You can define dates to limit the extraction as well as search for strings (that were extracted via Recall OCR) of interest. There is no rocket science behind all this."

If Microsoft don't kill recall quick, they'll kill Windows
Microsoft seems to be walking into a security nightmare with Copilot+ Recall
After a security expert discovered that Recall saves plain text logs of user activity in MySQL, Microsoft may be putting itself in big trouble.

i actually dont know the point of the recall feature to consumers, its not adding anything of worth that cant be done already via bookmarking or off hand remembering, i cant see how creating snapshots of everything you do apart from spying is adding anything, people have got to this point without much of a problem.

Microsoft just snuck out this Windows Recall feature to Insiders
Windows Recall looks like it will have a handy way to search the web from snapshots.
