Several cryptographers are sponsoring a new Password Hashing Algorithm to find a password hash that’s more secure than the existing alternatives.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif &#151 A team of three Chinese researchers have compromised the SHA-1 hashing algorithm at the core of many of today's mainstream security products. Top cryptographers said users ...

As the federal government comes under attack by increasingly sophisticated threat actors, encrypting data, hashing passwords and salting hashes are becoming more important.

The SHA-1 hashing algorithm, still used to sign almost one in three SSL certificates, can now be attacked for as little as $75,000, and should be urgently retired, researchers say ...

Most of the major web browsers will end support for the SHA-1 hashing algorithm by February of next year because the algorithm is becoming outdated.

Friday February 24, 2017 Reuters The algorithm, known as Secure Hash Algorithm 1 or SHA-1, is currently used to verify the integrity of digital files and signatures.
