Quantum computing poses a real and growing threat to established cryptographic algorithms like RSA and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), which form the backbone of digital security for DLT networks ...

Abstract: This paper presents a high-performance computer unit that is intended to serve as a hardware cryptography accelerator for the RSA algorithm. In order to provide robust security and ...

Tor has announced improved encryption and security for the circuit traffic by replacing the old tor1 relay encryption algorithm with a new design called Counter Galois Onion (CGO). One reason behind ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Imagine a town with two widget merchants. Customers prefer cheaper widgets, so the merchants must compete to set the lowest price.

When Edsger W. Dijkstra published his algorithm in 1959, computer networks were barely a thing. The algorithm in question found the shortest path between any two nodes on a graph, with a variant ...

Research and potentially implement support for additional JWT signing algorithms, specifically ECDSA (ES256, ES384, ES512) and RSA-PSS (PS256, PS384, PS512), to improve compatibility, security, and ...

Imagine a town with two widget merchants. Customers prefer cheaper widgets, so the merchants must compete to set the lowest price. Unhappy with their meager profits, they meet one night in a ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

So, you’ve probably heard a lot of buzz lately about quantum computers and how they might break RSA encryption. It sounds pretty scary, right? Like the internet as we know it is about to crumble. But ...
