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

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

Within five years the math for cracking encryption algorithms could become so efficient that it may render today's commonly used RSA public key cryptography algorithm obsolete, Black Hat attendees ...

This machine managed to achieve what is a relatively small-scale problem: cracking a 22-bit RSA number. Later efforts reportedly climbed to 50-bit keys using a mix of both quantum and classical ...

The RSA algorithm has become an encryption standard for many e-commerce security applications. The patent for it was issued to MIT on Sept. 20, 1983, and licensed exclusively to RSA Security.

Since RSA's invention, other asymmetric encryption algorithms have been devised; like RSA, they're all built on the assumption that a particular mathematical problem is hard to solve, usually ...

The mathematical difficulty of the above problem is what ensures the strength of our encryption (or lock). Crunching the numbers The RSA algorithm works as follows: ...
