The National Institute of Standards and Technology announced a new series of digital signature algorithms ready for the agency’s post-quantum cryptographic standardization process, following the ...

"These algorithms should cover most devices that have these sorts of resource constraints." ASCON was selected as the best of the 57 proposals submitted to NIST, several rounds of security analysis by ...

One of the most well-established and disruptive uses for a future quantum computer is the ability to crack encryption. A new algorithm could significantly lower the barrier to achieving this. Despite ...

The U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has finalized a set of encryption algorithms designed to withstand cyberattacks from quantum computers. These ...

Quantum computers could crack a common data encryption technique once they have a million qubits, or quantum bits. While this is still well beyond the capabilities of existing quantum computers, this ...

For more than 25 years, a technology used for critical data and voice radio communications around the world has been shrouded in secrecy to prevent anyone from closely scrutinizing its security ...

In a nutshell: Researchers at China's Tsinghua University believe they have discovered a quantum-based algorithm capable of breaking today's most complex encryption standards. The team claims that the ...
