Cryptography is something of a cryptic field, if you’ll forgive the pun. While one researcher erects the walls of a new technique, another tries to smash it to pieces. Seemingly counterintuitive, near ...

The new Ascon lightweight IP core offers a smaller alternative for devices with limited resources. April 27, 2023-- Xiphera releases XIP2201B, an IP core which supports the Ascon lightweight ...

A formula used to turn ordinary data, or "plaintext," into a secret coded message known as "ciphertext." The ciphertext can reside in storage or travel over unsecure networks without its contents ...

Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey — March 3, 2025 — Semiconductor intellectual property core provider CAST today announced a new IP core that implements the SNOW-V stream cipher algorithm to meet the ...

Scientists develop a chaos-based stream cipher that can withstand attacks from large-scale quantum computers. Fast algorithms on quantum computers could easily break many widely used cryptosystems, ...

This is the age where technology is expected to do more, faster, anonymously, and often invisibly. And it’s supposed to use less power, with smaller footprints, unobtrusively and intuitively. And all ...

While for most of us cryptographic systems are things that just run “under the hood,” they are an essential element in the world of digital communications. However, the upcoming rise of quantum ...

A proprietary algorithm developed by RSA Data Security, Inc., RC2 is an alternative to DES. The algorithm expands a single message by up to 8 bytes. RC2 is a block cipher that encrypts data in blocks ...
