It’s proven that today’s encryption is vulnerable to attack by a sufficiently mature quantum computer running Shor’s ...

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

- Japan's only 128-bit block cipher encryption algorithm to be adopted - TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NYS: NTT) and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO:6503) ...

Attackers are recording, and sometimes forging, vast volumes of human communication. Some of this communication is protected by cryptographic systems such as the Rivest–Shamir–Adleman (RSA) system and ...

Privacy professionals should pay closer attention to post-quantum cryptography as quantum-enabled attacks could eventually ...

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 ...

Hot on the heels of Diffie-Hellman upending the cryptography applecart in 1976 came three more crypto newcomers that further revolutionized the field: Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir, and Leonard Adleman. The ...

Post-quantum cryptography is moving from a future security concern to a practical planning issue for organizations. Quantum computers powerful enough to break widely used public-key encryption aren’t ...

There’s little doubt that some of the most important pillars of modern cryptography will tumble spectacularly once quantum computing, now in its infancy, matures sufficiently. Some experts say that ...

Two years ago, researchers in the Netherlands discovered an intentional backdoor in an encryption algorithm baked into radios used by critical infrastructure–as well as police, intelligence agencies, ...
