In the case of the latter, researchers claimed in 2024 to have used a quantum computer to break a form of encryption known as RSA. Data encryption is widely used to protect sensitive data sent ...

According to Heather Vescent, cybersecurity futurist at The Purple Tornado, a quantum computer that can crack widely used encryption could arrive between five and 20 years from now. “There could be a ...

What does Microsoft's quantum computing breakthrough mean for bitcoin? The quantum era will bring unprecedented prosperity–but we have to get there first.

Quantum computing threatens current encryption, making "harvest now, decrypt later" attacks a critical risk. NIST will ...

Today, [Henry Schmale] writes to us about his small contribution to making cryptography easier to understand – lifting the veil on the RSA asymmetric encryption technique through an RSA calculator.

It performs the Ae mod M calculation and therefore offloads the most computer-intensive operation of RSA from the main processor. The RSA cryptosystem can be used for public key encryption, decryption ...

The Public Key Cryptographic Library (PKCL) provides standardized key computation, encryption, decryption, signature and verification functionalities for all key sizes up to 8192 bits. It is compliant ...
