As if it wasn't enough that the NSA paid RSA $10 million to adopt an algorithm that wasn't entirely secure, researchers have now demonstrated that they can break even RSA 4096 bit encryption with ...

San Jose, Calif. – Altera Corp. has developed what it calls a way to lower the cost of RSA decryption. By porting a reusable RSA intellectual-property core to its Cyclone series of FPGAs, Altera said ...

In contrast to the cooperative preparations required for setting up private key encryption, such as secret-sharing and close coordination between sender and receiver ...

In December of 2009 we learned that the encryption algorithm used to protect GMS voice calls had been cracked. The cracking of the encryption meant that some voice calls might be vulnerable to ...

The threat that AI and quantum computing pose to cyber security is already here, even before these technologies are mature enough to crack today’s encryption methods. Bad actors are taking a “harvest ...

Today, a victim of a new ransomware called Paradise posted in the BleepingComputer.com forums and uploaded a sample so we could take a look at it. While this ransomware is not revolutionary by any ...

One of the principal challenges of resource sharing on data communication network is its security. This is premised on the fact that once there is connectivity between computers sharing some resources ...

The process — carried out in early December — generated a five-terabyte decryption table and, say the researchers, would have taken them around 1,500 years using an AMD Opteron-based single PC. The ...

Chinese scientists at Shanghai University have determined that a quantum computer from the Canadian firm D-Wave can effectively crack a popular encryption method. The paper details two technical ...
