X, formerly known as Twitter, rolled out an algorithm change to boost visibility among mutuals, and the crypto community is ...

It’s proven that today’s encryption is vulnerable to attack by a sufficiently mature quantum computer running Shor’s algorithm - a catastrophic event commonly known as Q-Day. Even before such a ...

Day, when an algorithm written more than 30 years ago could run on a quantum computer and compromise the security of data on ...

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 ...

The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things has driven the need for security solutions that respect the severe resource constraints of many devices. Lightweight cryptographic algorithms are tailored ...

We know the end of the line is in sight for classical cryptography. All the security encryption that protects our bank accounts, websites, and credit cards today will eventually be broken. That's not ...

Description of a digital payments scheme has been added to X’s algorithm, potentially paving the way for crypto integration ...

Mathematicians often toil in obscurity, and that's likely because few people, apart from fellow mathematicians who share the same sub-specialty, understand what they do. Even when algorithms have ...

It’ll still be a while before quantum computers become powerful enough to do anything useful, but it’s increasingly likely that we will see full-scale, error-corrected quantum computers become ...

Quantum computers can't crack regular VPN encryption just yet, but what happens when that changes?

Two researchers have improved a well-known technique for lattice basis reduction, opening up new avenues for practical experiments in cryptography and mathematics. In our increasingly digital lives, ...
