Australia is standing at the edge of a technological shift that could redefine cyber resilience. With quantum computing on the horizon, the very foundations of data security are under threat. While ...

Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) has emerged as a vital component in modern secure communication systems, offering enhanced security with smaller key sizes compared to traditional methods. Hardware ...

Quantum computing has long been portrayed as a looming threat to cybersecurity. Headlines warn of “Q-Day”—the moment when quantum machines will render today’s encryption useless. But behind the hype ...

As NIST rolls out advanced PQC standards to address the ‘Harvest now, decrypt later’ threat, a new report suggests that a smarter and simpler approach involves switching… ...

A July 15 report by global consulting firm Capgemini warns that public-key cryptographic systems, including RSA and elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), may be rendered obsolete by quantum machines in ...

Quantum computing is on the horizon, promising to solve complex problems beyond the capabilities of classical computers. But for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, which rely on today’s cryptographic ...

A bounty of $12,288 has been announced for the first person to crack the NIST elliptic curves seeds and discover the original phrases that were hashed to generate them. The bounty will be tripled to ...

Proof-of-work (PoW), or Nakamoto consensus, is a decentralized consensus mechanism that secures a blockchain by requiring nodes to expend energy and compete against each other to solve complex ...

Project 11 is looking to gauge the urgency of the quantum security risk to Bitcoin. Millions of addresses could be at risk if quantum computers are eventually able to break Bitcoin’s cryptography.

Referring to Q-Day, the day when quantum computers are powerful enough to break our current encryption, Arthur Herman, senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, once wrote the following: “Q-Day is the ...

Is Bitcoin ready for quantum computing? Coin Metrics Co-Founder Nic Carter says the real risk isn’t where you think.
