Is cryptography, the guardian of our digital security, crumbling in the face of quantum computers' power? A group of Chinese ...

RSA is an encryption technique developed in the late 1970s that involves generating public and private keys; the former is used for encryption and the latter decryption. Current standards call for ...

As if it wasn't enough that the NSA paid RSA $10 million to adopt an algorithm that wasn't entirely secure, researchers have now demonstrated that they can break even RSA 4096 bit encryption with ...

Chinese researchers have successfully used D-Wave‘s quantum annealing systems to break classic encryption RSA, potentially accelerating the timeline for when quantum computers could pose a real threat ...

The plug-and-play-style tool will provide encryption keys for data in networked storage; the first release is for tape drives only, but future versions will be for other media Cisco and RSA announced ...

New research shows that RSA-2048 encryption could be cracked using a one-million-qubit system by 2030, 20x faster than previous estimates. Here’s what it means for enterprise security. A quantum ...

Your online banking, encrypted messages, and digital certificates all rely on one assumption: factoring massive numbers takes classical computers longer than the heat death of the universe. Quantum ...

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 ...
