When this era of quantum computing arrives, we will reach the point where post-quantum cryptography (PCQ) becomes essential.

Several cryptographers are sponsoring a new Password Hashing Algorithm to find a password hash that’s more secure than the existing alternatives.

We will look at cryptographic hashing, and discuss some optimizations and other tricks that can be used to speed up commonly used algorithms. Due to recent discoveries of weaknesses in the commonly ...

Chapter 3 of the Cryptographic Handbook delves into how modern cryptographic algorithms are implemented.

Understand the essentials of SHA-3 and how the latest secure hash algorithm strongly protects embedded systems against security attacks.

Yes, “design flaw” in 1Password is a problem, just not for end users It may very well be time for a new and improved hashing function.

Cybercriminals often steer clear of brute-forcing hashing algorithms due to various reasons and instead focus on easier targets, such as exploiting compromised Active Directory passwords.

SHA1 algorithm securing e-commerce and software could break by year’s end Researchers warn widely used algorithm should be retired sooner.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif &#151 A team of three Chinese researchers have compromised the SHA-1 hashing algorithm at the core of many of today's mainstream security products. Top cryptographers said users ...
