The commonly used RSA encryption algorithm can now be cracked by a quantum computer with only 100,000 qubits, but the technical challenges to building such a machine remain numerous ...

In a new approach to security that unites technology and art, E researchers have combined silver nanostructures with polarized light to yield a range of brilliant colors, which can be used to encode ...

NIST selects four encryption algorithms to thwart future quantum computer attacks Your email has been sent The announcement follows a six-year effort to devise and ...

Eruces Data Security has secured a patent for its three-step encryption and key management scheme, which is designed to lock down data through its lifecycle. The security firm’s so-called Tricryption ...

Cryptography is something of a new field for Olivier Martin, who has been studying the optics of nanostructures for many years as head of the Nanophotonics and Metrology Lab EPFL’s School of ...

It was only a matter of time before we learned that the NSA has managed to thwart much of the encryption that protects telephone and online communication, but new revelations show the extent to which ...

Security teams are torn between the quest to encrypt everything and the technical feasibility of doing so. The advantage of encryption is that it obscures data, even after a breach, and satisfies ...

New kinds of encryption methods have been developed for improving the privacy protection of consumers to enable safer, more reliable and easier-to-use user authentication than current systems allow.

A group of researchers has claimed that quantum computers can now crack the encryption we use to protect emails, bank accounts and other sensitive data. Although this has long been a theoretical ...
