For years, the conversation around quantum computing and cryptocurrency has been dominated by a single, breathless question: Will a quantum breakthrough kill Bitcoin? The fear is simple enough.

The U.S. Department of War (DoW) has announced plans to transition to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to safeguard its systems against the risks posed by quantum computing. A new memorandum outlines ...

Hackers are exploiting a new, undocumented vulnerability in the implementation of the cryptographic algorithm present in Gladinet's CentreStack and Triofox products for secure remote file access and ...

TL;DR: Although often labeled a "dark web" associated with criminal activity and illicit marketplaces, Tor is an invaluable tool for protecting online privacy. Developers are now working to make the ...

Quantum computers are coming. And when they arrive, they are going to upend the way we protect sensitive data. Unlike classical computers, quantum computers harness quantum mechanical effects — like ...

EU's ProtectEU mandates on-device scanning before encryption, creating a two-tier security system where states encrypt while citizens are surveilled. Digital feudalism codified. Sam Altman, CEO of ...

In today's digital world, where security breaches can expose millions of records in seconds, and quantum computing is quickly moving from theory to reality, traditional cryptographic systems are under ...

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 ...

The company claims the new communication feature is end-to-end encrypted, meaning messages exchanged on it can only be read by the sender and their receiver, and — in theory — no one else, including X ...

SandboxAQ, an AI-driven quantum technology platform, has unveiled “Sandwich,” an open-source framework that aims to reshape contemporary cryptography management. As per the company, the platform ...

U.S. government information networks handling controlled unclassified and national security information are under continual cyber attack by sophisticated peer and near-peer adversaries. Evolving cyber ...
