Tails 5.14 is out (blog.torproject.org)
 

Onion link: http://pzhdfe7jraknpj2qgu5cz2u3i4deuyfwmonvzu5i3nyw4t4bmg7o5pad.onion/new-release-tails-514/

Tails website link: https://tails.boum.org/news/version_5.14/index.en.html

New Features:

  1. Persistent storage automatic migration to LUKS2 with Argon2id. Previous cryptographic standards used for persistent storage in Tails 5.12 and earlier are weak to state-sponsored attackers with physical device access. It will migrate automatically, butits's advised if you do not have a very strong password to change it.

  2. Option in Tails Installer to backup Persistent Storage

  3. Captive portal detection during Tor connection to allow signing into network when needed (such as motels)

  4. Donate option built into Electrum - Support the Tails team if you can!
