A key requirement is the use of ML-DSA-87 (Dilithium 5) for firmware and software signing, ensuring that secure boot and system integrity remain protected in a post-quantum world. It also mandates ...

Cryptography secures communication in banking, messaging, and blockchain. Good algorithms (AES, RSA, ECC, SHA-2/3, ChaCha20) are secure, efficient, and widely trusted. Bad algorithms (DES, MD5, SHA-1, ...

Abstract: The secure hash algorithm (SHA) is a widely used function for password hashing. This study introduced a modified SHA-512 algorithm by modifying the message scheduling, hash construction, and ...

Infineon Technologies has announced that its microcontrollers (MCUs) in the new PSOC Control C3 performance line family are compliant with post-quantum cryptography (PQC) requirements for firmware ...

Elon Musk's X is getting a new version of XChat with several privacy-oriented features, including what Musk calls 'Bitcoin style' encryption. If you're wondering what the heck "XChat" is, it's just a ...

While passwords remain the first line of defense for protecting user accounts against unauthorized access, the methods for creating strong passwords and protecting them are continually evolving. For ...

What Exactly Does the Hash Value Represent? A hash value (hash or hash value) is a numerical value used to represent data. It is a unique, fixed-length string of characters created by executing a ...

The recent announcement by Google CEO Sundar Pichai about their new quantum computing chip “Willow” has caused a few waves in the Bitcoin investment community and was like chum in the water for ...

Satoshi’s Bitcoin faces risk from advanced technology that could compromise its SHA-256, which maintains data integrity and generates cryptographic hashes during mining. Emin Gün Sirer advocates for ...
