The race against Q-Day has begun, and success will require not just technical innovation, but the wisdom to learn from each ...

Unlike quantum computing, which faces steep hardware challenges, AI research can be iterated, trained, and scaled on existing ...

Two researchers have improved a well-known technique for lattice basis reduction, opening up new avenues for practical experiments in cryptography and mathematics. In our increasingly digital lives, ...

A formula used to turn ordinary data, or "plaintext," into a secret coded message known as "ciphertext." The ciphertext can reside in storage or travel over unsecure networks without its contents ...

A view of NIST headquarters in Gaithersburg, Md. (Photo credit: NIST) The National Institute of Standards and Technology announced an algorithm that could serve as a second line of defense to ensure ...

Algorithms for encrypting computer data come in two main varieties: symmetric and asymmetric. Each encryption type has inherent strengths and weaknesses. Symmetric algorithms convert plain-text data ...

Senior executives must recognize that embedded encryption's long-neglected fragility poses a systemic risk to enterprise ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. In the last two articles, we covered the basic concepts and two basic types of cryptography. In this article, we will look at specific implementation ...

In the last section we discussed the potential for optimizing algorithms, which can be done, but sometimes may not result in the type of performance required. As was mentioned, you can always move the ...
