An algorithm that transforms a given amount of data (the "message") into a fixed number of digits, known as the "hash," "digest" or "digital fingerprint." Hash functions are a fundamental component in ...

As technology progresses, the rise of quantum computing brings both exciting opportunities and serious challenges, particularly in the field of cybersecurity. Quantum computers have the potential to ...

As the U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) prepares to announce the winner of its competition to find the next-generation cryptographic hash algorithm, ...

The newest version of a proven cryptographic system is being embedded in many of the most advanced platforms entering service in the U.S. military. The Advanced Infosec Machine (AIM) microchip is a ...

Juniper Networks plans to remove the problematic cryptographic functions used by its firewall and BPN appliances. Despite the good news, Juniper still has not answered some of the most perplexing ...
