Many of the most widely used asymmetric crypto algorithms rely on this weakness of classical computers to keep the encryption asymmetric.

Two basic types of algorithms are used in modern cryptography—asymmetric key and symmetric key. Asymmetric-key algorithms use a combination of private and public keys while symmetric algorithms ...

Post-Quantum Cryptography: The Algorithms That Will Protect Data In The Quantum Era Traditional asymmetric cryptographic methods won’t withstand attacks from quantum computers.

Cracking large integers with quantum mechanics Shor’s algorithm and a handful of other algorithms leverage quantum mechanics to crack the one-way functions at the heart of asymmetric cryptography.

To be able to effectively communicate information securely, it is vital that the data remains intact, albeit obfuscated, in the encrypted message. For this we need “true” cryptography as is found with ...

Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), also known as Quantum Safe Cryptography (QSC), refers to cryptographic algorithms designed to withstand attacks by quantum computers. Quantum computers will eventually ...

The algorithms can be categorized in many different ways, but perhaps the most fundamental is the distinction between symmetric and asymmetric encryption.

Cryptographic processes use three basic components to deliver upon these criteria for success–a key, a cryptographic mathematical function (also called cipher), and a message to be encrypted or ...
