Learn how lattice-based PQC secures Model Context Protocol (MCP) transport layers against quantum threats using NIST standards like ML-KEM and ML-DSA.

RSA certificates still vulnerable to 2019 flaw, reaearchers say. Update, March 20, 2025: This story, originally published March 17, has been updated with a statement from RSA regarding the encryption ...

Spotted an interesting report recently stating that 768-bit RSA encryption has been broken. Specifically, what researchers have done is factorised a 768=bit 232-digit number using a number field sieve ...

Encryption algorithms can be intimidating to approach, what’s with all the math involved. However, once you start digging into them, you can break the math apart into smaller steps, and get a feel of ...

Today, a victim of a new ransomware called Paradise posted in the BleepingComputer.com forums and uploaded a sample so we could take a look at it. While this ransomware is not revolutionary by any ...

Digital security depends on the difficulty of factoring large numbers. A new proof shows why one method for breaking digital encryption won’t work. My recent story for Quanta explained a newly proved ...

The bolding is mine, because if in fact the agency did crack the encryption schemes used for bank transactions (the Times is somewhat unclear on that point), then in doing so it may have solved a math ...

A large chunk of the global economy now rests on public key cryptography. We generally agree that with long enough keys, it is infeasible to crack things encoded that way. Until such time as it isn’t, ...

How end-to-end encryption is the wall that keeps our digital secrets safe – and why modern life would be unimaginable without ...
