RSA-2048’s days may be numbered. A new preprint suggests quantum computers could crack the encryption in just three days.

A formula used to turn ordinary data, or "plaintext," into a secret coded message known as "ciphertext." The ciphertext can reside in storage or travel over unsecure networks without its contents ...

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, ...

Viettel and the Government Cipher Committee have developed a 28-nanometer security chip that encrypts and decrypts data 15 ...

The report aims to help organizations take the standards already set out by NIST and create a plan for implementing them, in ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology announced a new series of digital signature algorithms ready for the agency’s post-quantum cryptographic standardization process, following the ...

NIST has finalized its principal set of encryption algorithms designed to withstand cyberattacks from a quantum computer. The announced algorithms are specified in the first completed standards from ...

Following six years of development, the National Institute of Standards and Technology has released draft standards for three algorithms that can resist future attacks by quantum computers. The U.S.

Virtual private networks, or VPNs, have become an essential part of today’s online security toolkit. A VPN hides your public IP address by routing your internet traffic through a remote server. It ...
