Google has announced that it has cracked the Secured Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1) cryptographic function, marking a milestone that spells both danger and opportunity for the computing world. The ...

The SHA-1 algorithm, one of the first widely used methods of protecting electronic information, has reached the end of its useful life, according to security experts at the National Institute of ...

Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 users are being asked to upgrade their encryption support. Microsoft is in the process of phasing out use of the Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1) code-signing ...

More than two years after Google, Firefox, and Microsoft have taken steps to deprecate TLS/SSL certificates signed with the SHA-1 algorithm, Apple has finally announced a similar measure this week. In ...

Windows 10 security: 'So good, it can block zero-days without being patched' Systems running the Windows 10 Anniversary Update were shielded from two exploits even before Microsoft had issued patches ...

The cryptography world has been buzzing with the news that researchers at Google and CWI Amsterdam have succeeded in successfully generating a 'hash collision' for two different documents using the ...

Security researchers have achieved the first real-world collision attack against the SHA-1 hash function, producing two different PDF files with the same SHA-1 signature. This shows that the algorithm ...

In 2017, Microsoft deprecated SHA-1 TLS certificates along with Google and Mozilla since the legacy hashing algorithm was no longer secure. Since then, their support shifted to SHA-2 and SHA-3, which ...

it isn't spelled out like in later algorithms but the plain "rsa" option here is an implicit rsa with sha-1 hashes. on edit: this hasn't been true for some time. Sorry for the confusion. Today -t rsa ...

Security experts are warning that a security flaw has been found in a powerful data encryption algorithm, dubbed SHA-1, by a team of scientists from Shandong University in China. The three scientists ...

This morning, security researchers working with Google announced that they have successfully created a technique for engineering a collision using the SHA-1 hash function, potentially endangering ...
