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 ...

The encryption protecting communications against criminal and nation-state snooping is under threat. As private industry and governments get closer to building useful quantum computers, the algorithms ...

U.S. government information networks handling controlled unclassified and national security information are under continual cyber attack by sophisticated peer and near-peer adversaries. Evolving cyber ...

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, ...

Quantum computers don't need to be nearly as powerful as we thought to break the world's most secure encryption algorithms, scientists warn. New research claims that quantum computers can make widely ...

The day when quantum computers will be able to break conventional encryption is rapidly approaching, but not all companies are prepared to implement post-quantum cryptography. Quantum-safe encryption ...

Cloud storage security has become essential as more sensitive personal and business data moves online. While most providers encrypt data at rest and in transit using AES-256 and TLS 1.3, server-side ...
