A recent, yet to be proven paper claiming to have found a way to "destroy the RSA cryptosystem" has cryptographers asking what might replace it. What if a big crack appeared overnight in the ...

Why Quantum-Resistant Encryption is Non-Negotiable appeared first on Read the Gopher Security's Quantum Safety Blog. The "ten ...

The day when a quantum computer can crack commonly used forms of encryption is drawing closer. The world isn’t prepared, ...

However, Quantum Day (Q-Day) is different. Q-Day is the moment a quantum computer becomes powerful enough to break the ...

In December of 2009 we learned that the encryption algorithm used to protect GMS voice calls had been cracked. The cracking of the encryption meant that some voice calls might be vulnerable to ...

The very prospect of the quantum apocalypse has driven various stakeholders to consider what that could be like and how to prepare. For instance, in 2015, the U.S. Natio ...

Three weeks ago, panic swept across some corners of the security world after researchers discovered a breakthrough that, at long last, put the cracking of the widely used RSA encryption scheme within ...

An IBM quantum computer during a 2023 inauguration event. Last week, a cybersecurity-focused trade group for the financial services industry released a whitepaper advocating for banks and other ...

A large chunk of the global economy now rests on public key cryptography. We generally agree that with long enough keys, it is infeasible to crack things encoded that way. Until such time as it isn’t, ...

Encryption algorithms can be intimidating to approach, what’s with all the math involved. However, once you start digging into them, you can break the math apart into smaller steps, and get a feel of ...

A recent research paper makes the claim that the RSA cryptographic algorithm can be broken with a quantum algorithm. Skeptics warn: don’t believe everything you read. Every CISO has encryption ...
