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 ...

A recent research paper makes the claim that the RSA cryptographic algorithm can be broken with a quantum algorithm. Skeptics warn: don’t believe everything you read. Every CISO has encryption ...

In December of 2009 we learned that the encryption algorithm used to protect GMS voice calls had been cracked. The cracking of the encryption meant that some voice calls might be vulnerable to ...

Modern encryption algorithms like RSA 2048 will remain safe from decryption by quantum computers for the foreseeable future, according to scientists from Fujitsu. The researchers used the company’s ...

Public key cryptography is an encryption method that uses different keys for encryption and decryption. For example, when Bob and Alice interact, Alice creates a private key and a public key, and ...

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 ...

Sectigo’s Tim Callan makes his top predictions for what the year ahead will hold for quantum computing and encryption. 2023 was the year that quantum computing entered the average person’s lexicon.

The US National Security Agency arranged a secret US$10 million (A$11 million) contract with RSA to embed intentional flaws into the security giant's encryption software. Earlier documents leaked by ...
