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 ...

The commonly used RSA encryption algorithm can now be cracked by a quantum computer with only 100,000 qubits, but the technical challenges to building such a machine remain numerous ...

Researchers at Black Hat USA 2013 made a call for usage of elliptic curve cryptography in favor of the RSA algorithm, which the experts said could be cracked in the next five years. LAS VEGAS – ...

In the last section we discussed the potential for optimizing algorithms, which can be done, but sometimes may not result in the type of performance required. As was mentioned, you can always move the ...

RSA encryption is a major foundation of digital security and is one of the most commonly used forms of encryption, and yet it operates on a brilliantly simple premise: it's easy to multiply two large ...

RSA CONFERENCE 2022 – Even the most future-facing panels at this year's RSA Conference are grounded in the lessons of the past. At the post-quantum cryptography keynote "Wells Fargo PQC Program: The ...

A team at Google Quantum AI, led by researcher Craig Gidney, has shown that breaking RSA-2048 encryption could require roughly 20 times fewer physical qubits than previously estimated, collapsing the ...

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 ...

It’ll still be a while before quantum computers become powerful enough to do anything useful, but it’s increasingly likely that we will see full-scale, error-corrected quantum computers become ...
