Behind the hype lies a grounded, strategic reality: transitioning to post-quantum cryptography is about preparation, not ...

For example, this is used to support online shopping or secure messaging, traditionally using the RSA algorithm, though increasingly an alternative called elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman.

The RSA algorithm is a feast of genius that combines theoretical math and practical coding into working asymmetric cryptography. Here’s how it works.

Quantum computing is a catalyst for rethinking how organizations govern, secure and manage cryptographic systems.

RSA encryption uses an ingeniously simple mathematical premise. Recent news stories suggesting it's been cracked are an exaggeration. We're not there yet.

Ronald Rivest helped come up with the RSA algorithm, which safeguards online commerce. Now he’s hoping to make democratic elections more trustworthy.

RSA Security Inc. unexpectedly released the widely used RSA public-key encryption algorithm into the public domain ahead of this week's expiration of the patent on the algorithm -- a move that's ...

How the NSA (may have) put a backdoor in RSA’s cryptography: A technical primer Here are the basics on backdoors in security systems.

RSA authentication is a popular encryption method used in media players, laptop computers, smartphones, servers and other devices.

Just as RSA encryption relies on the difficulty of factoring extremely large numbers, three of the four algorithms unveiled this week use a complicated mathematical problem that’s expected to be ...

Quantum computing might have more significant impact on public-key cryptography, which is used to set up secure connections online. For example, this is used to support online shopping or secure ...
