A new research paper from a Google researcher slashed the estimated quantum resources needed to break RSA encryption, which ...

When quantum computers become powerful enough, they could theoretically crack the encryption algorithms that keep us safe. The race is on to find new ones. Tech Review Explains: Let our writers ...

A quantum computer with a million qubits would be able to crack the vital RSA encryption algorithm, and while such machines ...

Below, I'll go through some types of encryptions, share the leading encryption algorithms and explain why symmetric encryption remains a reliable method for secure data exchange. Data encryption ...

“We need to have new algorithms to replace the ones that are vulnerable, and the first step is to standardize them.” Just as RSA encryption relies on the difficulty of factoring extremely ...

The standard, called HQC, is a backup for the main “post-quantum cryptography” algorithm NIST finalized for general encryption known as Module-Lattice-Based Key-Encapsulation Mechanism, or ML-KEM.

Included in the encryption standards are the algorithms’ computer code, implementation instructions, and the intended uses for each form of encryption. The first, named Federal Information ...

One of the most well-established and disruptive uses for a future quantum computer is the ability to crack encryption. A new algorithm could significantly lower the barrier to achieving this. Despite ...

The path to PQC is fraught with risks. RSA and other encryption algorithms have been in use for decades with no known ways for them to be broken. Over the years, that track record has led to ...

Last month, the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), selected four post-quantum-computing encryption algorithms to replace algorithms like RSA, Diffie-Hellman, and elliptic ...
