Algorithms for encrypting computer data come in two main varieties: symmetric and asymmetric. Each encryption type has inherent strengths and weaknesses. Symmetric algorithms convert plain-text ...

Cryptographic algorithms form the backbone of information security, defending data integrity and privacy in diverse applications.

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

Cryptography algorithms contain keys, which can encrypt or decrypt data. There are two different types of cryptography used in data scrambling: symmetric, where both the sender and receiver have the ...

In this chapter we will look at choosing and optimizing cryptographic algorithms, particularly for resource-constrained systems, such as embedded systems.

An IBM quantum computer during a 2023 inauguration event. Last week, a cybersecurity-focused trade group for the financial services industry released a whitepaper advocating for banks and other ...

SIKE was a contender for post-quantum-computing encryption. It took researchers an hour and a single PC to break it.

Agencies should test post-quantum cryptography algorithms with their software and decide whether information security benefits outweigh the efficiency losses ahead of a federally mandated transition, ...

IBM's Quantum Safe platform aims to protect organizations from future quantum threats to classical cryptography.
