Claude Mythos Preview discovered new attacks in testing against weakened cryptographic algorithms, which protect online ...

Post-quantum encryption candidate HAWK collapsed July 29 after Anthropic AI found a fatal mathematical flaw in 60 hours, ...

The amount of quantum computing power needed to crack a common data encryption technique has been reduced tenfold. This makes the encryption method even more vulnerable to quantum computers, which may ...

Anthropic’s Mythos AI model has helped discover two new cryptanalytic attacks, one against the NIST post-quantum digital ...

A formula used to turn ordinary data, or "plaintext," into a secret coded message known as "ciphertext." The ciphertext can reside in storage or travel over unsecure networks without its contents ...

Anthropic’s Claude Mythos AI discovered a novel way to crack a weakened version of AES encryption, raising fresh concerns ...

Encryption is buried across servers, applications, cloud systems, certificates, network devices, APIs and third-party software, often invisible to the very teams responsible for securing it. That ...

Update: On 18 April, Yilei Chen announced an issue with his algorithm which he does not know how to fix. This means the algorithm does not undermine the mathematics behind post-quantum cryptography.

Virtual private networks, or VPNs, have become an essential part of today’s online security toolkit. A VPN hides your public IP address by routing your internet traffic through a remote server. It ...

The announcement follows a six-year effort to devise and then vet encryption methods to significantly increase the security of digital information, the agency said. The Department of Commerce’s ...

Two years ago, researchers in the Netherlands discovered an intentional backdoor in an encryption algorithm baked into radios used by critical infrastructure–as well as police, intelligence agencies, ...
