Algorithms for encrypting computer data come in two main varieties: symmetric and asymmetric. Each encryption type has inherent strengths and weaknesses. Symmetric algorithms convert plain-text data ...

In this paper, the authors present a peer analysis in the field of encryption algorithms, in concentrating on private key block ciphers which are generally used for bulk data and link encryption. They ...

Data integrity holds the most delicate aspect of any organization. It provides the reliability and security of data details over its lifecycle. However, day after day the number of data violations and ...

Quantum computers stand a good chance of changing the face computing, and that goes double for encryption. For encryption methods that rely on the fact that brute-forcing the key takes too long with ...

Encryption is the process of converting readable data, known as plaintext, into a jumbled string of data called ciphertext. Encryption algorithms use mathematical operations to scrabble data, making ...

Encryption has become a routine part of everyday life. Your iPhone uses it to defeat cybercriminals and snoopers. Security cameras may use it to keep footage private. And your VPN definitely uses it, ...

Over the past several years, there has been a steady drumbeat of warnings about the impact of quantum computing on traditional encryption ...

Encryption is a term that many of us have come across, but what does it mean? To put it simply, encryption is the encoding of information. Various online services use it to keep your data private and ...

When I sent out this alert about Banks not using SSL to prove their identity to their users, quite a bit of feedback was excessively cynical on encryption technology and cryptography in general along ...
