Karsten Nohl, the founder of Berlin's Security Research Labs, has announced an exploit for SIM cards using the outdated 56-bit DES algorithm for its signature verification. The security researcher ...

Quantum computing is a catalyst for rethinking how organizations govern, secure and manage cryptographic systems.

The DES algorithm was (officially) developed by IBM after NBS solicited proposals for its encryption standard. At the time, there was concern over certain aspects of the algorithm's design.

Behind the hype lies a grounded, strategic reality: transitioning to post-quantum cryptography is about preparation, not ...

[Part 1 of this article begins with a review of various application security level categories and a look at hash algorithms as a basic level of security. Part 2 covers the basics for optimizing ...

It's the little things that matter most, as the saying goes, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has got their back. NIST's newly finalized lightweight cryptography standard ...
