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 ...

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 ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology has selected four candidates to form the basis of future data-protection technologies to resist attack by quantum computers, the US science agency ...

RSA encryption is a major foundation of digital security and is one of the most commonly used forms of encryption, and yet it operates on a brilliantly simple premise: it's easy to multiply two large ...

The research team, led by Wang Chao from Shanghai University, found that D-Wave’s quantum computers can optimize problem-solving in a way that makes it possible to attack encryption methods such as ...

In July, the National Institute of Standards and Technologies selected four cryptography algorithms as national standards for public key security in order to prepare for an era of quantum computers, ...

The U.S. Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has selected four quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms for general encryption and digital signatures. NIST ...

A team of academic researchers from universities in California and Massachusetts demonstrated that it’s possible under certain conditions for passive network attackers to retrieve secret RSA keys from ...
