What is the RVA23 RISC-V specification? How does SiFive’s P570 improve upon the specification? The RISC-V RVA23 is a 64-bit specification that requires vector and hypervisor support with cache ...

On October 30, 1942, a group of destroyer warships from the British Royal Navy hunted down a Nazi submarine near the Nile Delta. The warships pounded the submarine with underwater explosions until it ...

In the 1980s, Charles Bennett and Gilles Brassard created a new kind of encryption that would be impregnable. By Cade Metz Cade Metz has reported on quantum technologies since the 1990s. In the ...

In mathematics, proofs can be written down and shared. In cryptography, when people are trying to avoid revealing their secrets, proofs are not always so simple—but a new result significantly closes ...

For C-suite leaders, one of the most daunting operational challenges of the next decade will be the migration to post-quantum cryptography: algorithms that can defend against attacks from quantum ...

Cryptography secures digital data using algorithms, essential in private secure communications. Cryptos use cryptographic methods like asymmetric encryption and hash functions for transactions.

A global group of researchers was unable to read the vote tally, after an official lost one of three secret code keys needed to unlock a hyper-secure election system. By Pranav Baskar For a group of ...

Initialize is a brief story mission that serves as the introduction for Destiny 2's Ash and Iron update. This is a short combat encounter in the Tower that sets up Maya Sundaresh's hunt for Golden Age ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Hard problems are usually not a welcome sight. But cryptographers love them. That’s because certain hard math problems underpin the ...

Quantum computing presents both a potential breakthrough and a cryptographic threat -- one that Microsoft is tackling through what it calls "progress towards next‑generation cryptography." In a post ...

Reports began surfacing in October that Chinese researchers used a quantum computer to crack military-grade AES 256-bit encryption. Those reports turned out to be wrong, but that did little to dampen ...

There’s little doubt that some of the most important pillars of modern cryptography will tumble spectacularly once quantum computing, now in its infancy, matures sufficiently. Some experts say that ...
