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 ...

Las Vegas — Within five years the math for cracking encryption algorithms could become so efficient that it may render today’s commonly used RSA public key cryptography algorithm obsolete, Black Hat ...

Quantum computers could crack a common data encryption technique once they have a million qubits, or quantum bits. While this is still well beyond the capabilities of existing quantum computers, this ...

Cybersecurity experts are awaiting the imminent announcement from the National Institute for Standards (NIST) of its recommended post-quantum cryptography (PQC) encryption algorithms — an important ...

With the increasing number of high-profile data and privacy breaches in the Internet of Things (IoT) systems, businesses and consumers have a greater awareness of the need for security when buying ...

Imagine if, tomorrow, someone invented a “digital skeleton key” that could unlock any keyless entry system. Overnight, millions of door locks, garages and practically every modern vehicle would become ...
