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 ...
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 ...
The rapid, continuing expansion of Internet and wireless based communications across open networks is creating an increasing need to encrypt the frequently sensitive or confidential data being ...
Author Nick Sullivan worked for six years at Apple on many of its most important cryptography efforts before recently joining CloudFlare, where he is a systems engineer. He has a degree in mathematics ...
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 ...
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 ...
In an email to developers, RSA said its BSafe toolkit supports a random number generator cryptography experts are concerned contains a modification enabling it to be used in U.S. government ...
