There’s little doubt that some of the most important pillars of modern cryptography will tumble spectacularly once quantum computing, now in its infancy, matures sufficiently. Some experts say that ...

Are there exportation limitations for AES data encryption? Lots of laptop vendors now offer this kind of disk encryption as a feature. And does it matter if it's 256 or lower levels? The Advanced ...

Claude Mythos found mathematical weaknesses in HAWK (halving key strength) and reduced-round AES (200-800x faster attack). Both discovered mostly autonomously. No production systems affected. Each ...

Reports began surfacing in October that Chinese researchers used a quantum computer to crack military-grade AES 256-bit encryption. Those reports turned out to be wrong, but that did little to dampen ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) seeks public input on the proposed changes until June 25, 2025. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently proposed ...

In the digital era and moving towards quantum computing, protecting data against hack attacks is one of our biggest challenges—and one that experts, governments, and industries worldwide work hard to ...

Yoon Auh’s company does “cryptographic logistics,” swapping ciphers on the fly, because nobody can prove quantum-resistant ...

Quantum computing will reshape encryption, but not overnight, and a disciplined, phased approach lets organizations modernize cryptographic foundations without disruption while strengthening security ...

What’s the best way to solve hard problems? That’s the question at the heart of a subfield of computer science called computational complexity theory. It’s a hard question to answer, but flip it ...
