When I began programming microcontrollers in 2003, I had picked up the Atmel STK-500 and learned assembler for their ATtiny and ATmega lines. At the time I thought it was great – the emulator and ...

Encryption is one of the pillars of modern-day communications. You have devices that use encryption all the time, even if you are not aware of it. There are so many applications and systems using it ...

Nathan Eddy works as an independent filmmaker and journalist based in Berlin, specializing in architecture, business technology and healthcare IT. He is a graduate of Northwestern University’s Medill ...

Public key encryption with equality test (PKEET) represents a significant advance in cryptographic research. This technology allows a designated tester to determine whether two independently generated ...

Quantum security is not just about new algorithms – operators must tackle key issues and untangle crypto sprawl before ...

Even if your data is encrypted now, your company would still face a detrimental impact if it were stolen today and decrypted ...

Current public-key cryptography is expected to be broken by a large-scale quantum computer as soon as eight years from now. There is no question that quantum computing poses significant risks to the ...

Public-key cryptography (PKC, or asymmetric cryptography) had a revolutionary effect on the theory of cryptography. PKC’s use of pure mathematical hard problems led to a study of academic, theoretical ...

An encryption method for transmitting data that uses key pairs, comprising one private and one public key. Public key cryptography is called "asymmetric encryption" because both keys are not equal. A ...
