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 ...

Quantum computing is a catalyst for rethinking how organizations govern, secure and manage cryptographic systems.

What does encryption algorithm actually mean? Find out inside PCMag's comprehensive tech and computer-related encyclopedia.

Today, the new technological frontier is quantum science, which enables otherwise impossible advances in many other fields. Every company in the nascent U.S. quantum industry is built entirely upon ...

The new NIST encryption standards should survive future quantum computing decryption attacks - here's what you need to know.

SIKE was a contender for post-quantum-computing encryption. It took researchers an hour and a single PC to break it.

Just attack the math Encryption algorithms which were supposed to see off quantum computing are turning out to be pants. SIKE (Supersingular Isogeny Key Encapsulation) was supposed to be the ...

The National Institute for Standards and Technology has removed a controversial encryption algorithm from a key security document after years of reports that it contained a backdoor for the National ...

Researchers found that an encryption algorithm likely used by law enforcement and special forces can have weaknesses that ...

It's 2008, and companies perhaps rich on VC money to waste in a guerilla marketing tactic for generating viral buzz, still talk and act as the utopian "unbreakable encryption" algorithm is the ...
