The U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has finalized a set of encryption algorithms designed to withstand cyberattacks from quantum computers. These ...

In the last section we discussed the potential for optimizing algorithms, which can be done, but sometimes may not result in the type of performance required. As was mentioned, you can always move the ...

Researchers have demonstrated new collision attacks against SHA-1 and MD5 implementations in TLS, IKE and SSH. If you’re hanging on to the theory that collision attacks against SHA-1 and MD5 aren’t ...

Academic researchers developed a new attack called Terrapin that manipulates sequence numbers during the handshake process to break the SSH channel integrity when certain widely-used encryption modes ...

Data drives business, and it must be protected. Cybersecurity is an ongoing, ever-evolving challenge for organizations across industries—and it’s about to become even more complex as the age of ...

Developers of two open source code libraries for Secure Shell—the protocol millions of computers use to create encrypted connections to each other—are retiring the SHA-1 hashing algorithm, four months ...

When quantum computers become powerful enough, they could theoretically crack the encryption algorithms that keep us safe. The race is on to find new ones. Tech Review Explains: Let our writers ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In our increasingly digital lives, security depends on cryptography. Send a private message or pay a bill online, and you’re relying on ...

SandboxAQ, an AI-driven quantum technology platform, has unveiled “Sandwich,” an open-source framework that aims to reshape contemporary cryptography management. As per the company, the platform ...

Chaotic hash functions represent a cutting‐edge convergence between nonlinear dynamics and cryptographic science. These functions employ chaotic maps—mathematical systems that exhibit extreme ...
