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 ...

"These algorithms should cover most devices that have these sorts of resource constraints." ASCON was selected as the best of the 57 proposals submitted to NIST, several rounds of security analysis by ...

Image encryption and associated security algorithms have become critical in protecting visual data as digital communication networks expand. Contemporary methods combine traditional cryptographic ...

One of the most well-established and disruptive uses for a future quantum computer is the ability to crack encryption. A new algorithm could significantly lower the barrier to achieving this. Despite ...

Current data encryption techniques may fend off the threat of quantum computing for some time to come, security experts say. In recent years the computational potential of qubits has led many to ...

Encryption is a term that many of us have come across, but what does it mean? To put it simply, encryption is the encoding of information. Various online services use it to keep your data private and ...

SCOTTSVILLE, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Castle Shield Holdings, LLC., a leader in Zero Trust and cybersecurity solutions, today announced that its Aeolus VPN solution now supports additional post-quantum ...

A recent, yet to be proven paper claiming to have found a way to "destroy the RSA cryptosystem" has cryptographers asking what might replace it. What if a big crack appeared overnight in the ...

One of the easiest ways to protect your privacy and security on a smartphone is to set a passcode or biometric lock to enable disk encryption. That way if your phone gets lost or stolen, no one can ...

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 ...
