The security system that underlies the internet makes use of a curious fact: You can broadcast part of your encryption to make your information much more secure. When you purchase through links on our ...

As a Bitcoiner, you’re going to need a secure way to communicate privately, without relying on a company to encrypt your data for you. For example, freely available methods with end-to-end encryption ...

In July, the National Institute of Standards and Technologies selected four cryptography algorithms as national standards for public key security in order to prepare for an era of quantum computers, ...

Public-key cryptography (PKC, or asymmetric cryptography) had a revolutionary effect on the theory of cryptography. PKC’s use of pure mathematical hard problems led to a study of academic, theoretical ...

I’m going to talk about the security behind Bitcoin addresses and keys, called Public Key Cryptography. This includes SHA256, Random Number Generators(RNGs), Hash Functions, and Elliptic Curve Digital ...

Hard to believe it’s been 30 years of public key cryptography. Codes and ciphers have been one of my interests since I was a mere young’un, and electronic crypto is the most recent offshoot of that. I ...

Just weeks after US president Joe Biden signed into law the Quantum Computing Cybersecurity Preparedness Act, there are reports that Chinese researchers have cracked RSA 2048 bit encryption. Given ...

Understand the crypto concepts behind the modern internet security infrastructure, from digital signatures and transport layer security to blockchains and Bitcoin. Cryptography grows ever more ...
