Because a large part of an encryption algorithm's strength lies in the length of its keys, researchers now consider RC2 to be too easily compromised (Reference 3).

Researchers found that an encryption algorithm likely used by law enforcement and special forces can have weaknesses that ...

MicroAlgo Inc. (the "Company" or "MicroAlgo") (NASDAQ: MLGO) announced that the quantum image encryption algorithm they developed, based on quantum key images, is an innovative image protection ...

Classical versus quantum-resistant algorithms The classic public key encryption algorithm involves the problem of factoring large numbers.

You provide an encryption algorithm with a key and the data you want to protect (the plaintext), and it produces an encrypted output (the ciphertext).

In a nutshell: Researchers at China's Tsinghua University believe they have discovered a quantum-based algorithm capable of breaking today's most complex encryption standards. The team claims that ...

The predicted processing power of quantum computers is likely to make existing encryption algorithms obsolete. Quantum key distribution (QKD) has been posited as a possible solution. Computer ...

A quantum computing method called Grover’s algorithm, however, speeds up the process, turning that 128-bit key into the quantum-computational equivalent of a 64-bit key.
