In the end, critical infrastructure’s biggest quantum risk is the outdated, manual trust models of today. Only by replacing ...

Encryption is a term that many of us have come across, but what does it mean? To put it simply, encryption is the encoding of information. Various online services use it to keep your data private and ...

The US Department of Commerce's technical standards organization NIST has nominated the Ascon group of cryptographic algorithms for protecting small devices and information transmitted to and from IoT ...

Whenever we talk about end-to-end encrypted data, we're usually talking about messaging apps like iMessage, Signal, WhatsApp, and Google's RCS. But plenty of other data is encrypted to ensure ...

As cybercriminals gain access to increasingly more computing power capable of breaking existing encryption algorithms in ...

Microsoft will soon start "accelerating" input/output (I/O) operations for BitLocker-encrypted volumes on PC systems with ...

Two years ago, researchers in the Netherlands discovered an intentional backdoor in an encryption algorithm baked into radios used by critical infrastructure–as well as police, intelligence agencies, ...
