Tor has announced improved encryption and security for the circuit traffic by replacing the old tor1 relay encryption algorithm with a new design called Counter Galois Onion (CGO). One reason behind ...

Abstract: Currently, both pixel-level and bit-level image encryption algorithms demonstrate excellent visual performance. However, most high-security algorithms usually involve complex encryption ...

Quantum computers could one day crack the encryption protecting your most sensitive data. Here's how VPNs are adapting. I’ve been writing about technology since 2012, focusing on privacy. With ...

Two years ago, researchers in the Netherlands discovered an intentional backdoor in an encryption algorithm baked into radios used by critical infrastructure–as well as police, intelligence agencies, ...

Data security involves implementing strategies to safeguard digital information against unauthorized disclosure and modification across computing and communication infrastructures. Given the ...

Microsoft prepares for security in a world where our old codes are easily broken. Get familiar with these technologies now before they become necessary. Much of what we do to keep our online lives ...

Elon Musk's X is getting a new version of XChat with several privacy-oriented features, including what Musk calls 'Bitcoin style' encryption. If you're wondering what the heck "XChat" is, it's just a ...

A new research paper by Google Quantum AI researcher Craig Gidney shows that breaking widely used RSA encryption may require 20 times fewer quantum resources than previously believed. The finding did ...

Quantum computing can break Bitcoin’s encryption using Shor’s algorithm, threatening wallets and transactions within 5-7 years. The crypto industry must urgently adopt post-quantum cryptography to ...

Quantum computers could crack a common data encryption technique once they have a million qubits, or quantum bits. While this is still well beyond the capabilities of existing quantum computers, this ...
