Some cryptographers are looking for RSA replacements because the algorithm is just one encryption algorithm that may be vulnerable to new machines that exploit quantum effects in electronics.

Building on a landmark algorithm, researchers propose a way to make a smaller and more noise-tolerant quantum factoring circuit for cryptography.

Security firm RSA publicly released its encryption algorithm Wednesday, allowing any company to freely develop solutions based on its prevalent technology. The algorithm is used by both Netscape ...

Stop using NSA-influenced code in our products, RSA tells customers Firm "strongly recommends" customers stop using RNG reported to contain NSA backdoor.

Chinese researchers have successfully used D-Wave ‘s quantum annealing systems to break classic encryption RSA, potentially accelerating the timeline for when quantum computers could pose a real ...

How a quantum computer could break 2048-bit RSA encryption in 8 hours A new study shows that quantum technology will catch up with today’s encryption standards much sooner than expected.

The report details a secret deal between the NSA and respected encryption company RSA, in which the agency paid $10 million for RSA to incorporate the weaker algorithm into an encryption product ...
