Spotted an interesting report recently stating that 768-bit RSA encryption has been broken. Specifically, what researchers have done is factorised a 768=bit 232-digit number using a number field sieve ...
The bolding is mine, because if in fact the agency did crack the encryption schemes used for bank transactions (the Times is somewhat unclear on that point), then in doing so it may have solved a math ...
Current standards call for using a 2,048-bit encryption key. Over the past several years, research has suggested that quantum computers would one day be able to crack RSA encryption, but because ...
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 ...
For the last two days my inbox (and LinkedIn messages) has been flooded with questions about headlines claiming that “Chinese researchers broke RSA encryption with a quantum computer, threatening ...
Hackers try to find novel ways to circumvent or undermine data encryption schemes all the time. But at the Black Hat security conference in Las Vegas on Wednesday, Purdue University researcher Sze ...
Security researchers have successfully broken one of the most secure encryption algorithms, 4096-bit RSA, by listening -- yes, with a microphone-- to a computer as it decrypts some encrypted data. The ...
Digital security depends on the difficulty of factoring large numbers. A new proof shows why one method for breaking digital encryption won’t work. My recent story for Quanta explained a newly proved ...
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- (RSA Conference) -- Echoworx Corporation, (www.echoworx.com) the leading provider of managed encryption services for complete enterprise email and data ...
