The Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol is one of the most widely-used security protocols in use today, protecting the information exchanged between web clients and servers all around the world.

Abstract: Due to the increasing threats from possible large-scale quantum computers, post-quantum cryptography (PQC) has drawn significant attention from various communities recently. In particular, ...

In the 1980s, Charles Bennett and Gilles Brassard created a new kind of encryption that would be impregnable. By Cade Metz Cade Metz has reported on quantum technologies since the 1990s. In the ...

In mathematics, proofs can be written down and shared. In cryptography, when people are trying to avoid revealing their secrets, proofs are not always so simple—but a new result significantly closes ...

For C-suite leaders, one of the most daunting operational challenges of the next decade will be the migration to post-quantum cryptography: algorithms that can defend against attacks from quantum ...

The private communication of individuals and organizations is protected online by cryptography. Cryptography protects our information as it travels over and is stored on the internet—whether making a ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Hard problems are usually not a welcome sight. But cryptographers love them. That’s because certain hard math problems underpin the ...

Hard problems are usually not a welcome sight. But cryptographers love them. That’s because certain hard math problems underpin the security of modern encryption. Any clever trick for solving them ...

Crypto whales, entities holding significant amounts of cryptocurrency, can shape market dynamics, influencing price movements, liquidity, and even governance decisions within blockchain ecosystems.

Quantum computing capabilities are accelerating, pushing traditional encryption methods closer to obsolescence. In response, cryptographers and security professionals are advancing post-quantum ...
