I had a WikiLeaks Insurance File from 2010 and was kind of hoping the recent tweets might contain a decryption key for them. I noticed that on archive.org there is a 375gb Insurance File uploaded from 2015 and the 88gb one from 2016.
I'd love to know what's in them. Back up - or as-yet unreleased...

Thank you for acknowledging the thread. Seems earth shaking especially if world bank's are threatened to be "toast".
Sorry, I've seen you link the thread a few places, but was a bit occupied to respond.
I found the thread a few hours before you started linking it.
As for your banking concern, yes, in early posts he noted a concern, but later on he responded...

Now in terms of AES-256, on a mathematical basis, it STILL
quite secure if you are using it only for short periods of time.
(i.e. use only for minutes or less such as in banking and online
purchases and SWIFT-like bank wire transfers).
So at least some banking uses would still be considered secure in his opinion.
It certainly would be interesting if this new development could successfully crack the insurance files. From his description it seems it would still depend on how secure Wikileaks was with their passwords.
It seems the new development would have success in greatly narrowing down probable options if Wikileaks wasn't creative when it came to their passwords, but if their passwords are random letters/characters (not using actual "words"), then the method could easily discard the actual password from even being attempted... thus.. no success.
This is a 256 bit hex hash key.
It is likely the generated hash for a file/archive download. Basically, if you download it from the correct source and run a sha-256 sum on the archive, such as a zip...it would match that 64 bit key EXACTLY. If someone changed even 1 character in the zip, (like a bad individual)..the 64 bit hash would be 100% different.
Upon inspection of the source data of this email, as provided by WikiLeaks, there is a canary in the coal mine pointing to this document being either a hacked or spoofed email

Ok, I've made my way through the thread and much of it is beyond me. I do get the sense, however that the OP believes that they are on the right track if not completely within the zone.
From what I can gather, they seem to give the indication that # is about to go down in a MAJOR way.
The poster who posted a PGP message and the OP of that thread are both long time members.
There is either some serious super secret squirrel stuff in the offing, or someone is entirely too deep into LARPing.

The numbers are checksums of files before committing (uploading) them to a repository. It seems like they are using some type of revision control system like Subversion (SVN) or the now famous GitHub.
In security controlled systems it is sometimes necessary to publish a checksum through official channels before committing (pre-commitment) the files to a repository / server. This allows everyone who plans on accessing the files to know if they were tampered with during upload, or after upload, or at any time.

I'd like to know what Wikileaks' contingency plans are. I think they should just release everything they've got now.
If he did than he would likely be committing suicide, via 5 shots to the back of the head.
Assange has Obama/Clinton/Kerry by the balls. He is actually safer than any of us.
Yup he has them by the balls as he cowers inside the Ecuadorean embassy hiding from rape allegations. What a life.
When was the last time Pamela Anderson brought YOU lunch?

It was my understanding that the "rape charge" was highly questionable (by most standards) due to a strange Swedish law that says something to the effect of 'consensual unwed intercourse, without the use of a condom, is considered "lesser-degree rape" by the state'.
I do know that of the charges he faced, the statute of limitations has expired on all but the "lesser-degree rape" charge.
The charges seem to stem from two women going to the state to simply request that he be tested for STDs. Not anyone claiming they were "raped" in the traditional, non-consensual, western understanding of the term.
