Misconceptions about Skype local database
Read OriginalThis article is a follow-up and correction to a previous post. The author clarifies that Skype's local database, while unencrypted, is not a security vulnerability because it is stored in the 'appdata' directory, which is only accessible by an administrator account. They explain that a guest account would prevent access and that the primary risk is post-reconnaissance after a system is already compromised. The author apologizes for the misconceptions caused by their initial article.
