When it comes to public key cryptography, most systems today are still stuck in the 1970s. On December 14, 1977, two events occurred that would change the world: Paramount Pictures released Saturday ...

Quantum computing's rapid advancements pose an urgent threat to the security of digital assets and financial systems.

We all know the usual jokes about the ‘S’ in ‘IoT’ standing for ‘Security’. It’s hardly a secret that security in embedded, networked devices (‘IoT devices’) is all too often a last-minute task that ...

Whoever Satoshi Nakamoto is or was, the author's 2008 paper on blockchain technology is now regarded as one of the most important developments in computer science this century. As the blockchain is ...

Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) has emerged as a vital component in modern secure communication systems, offering enhanced security with smaller key sizes compared to traditional methods. Hardware ...

Project Eleven, a quantum security research company, awarded a prize to researcher Giancarlo Lelli for using a quantum computer to break a 15-bit elliptic-curve key — a small-scale version of the same ...

Quantum Q-Day threatens encryption; organizations must prepare now.

A public key cryptography method that provides fast decryption and digital signature processing. Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) uses points on an elliptic curve to derive a 163-bit public key that ...

Editor's note: See the original article on PurpleAlientPlanet. Some of my research is focused on the implementation issues of elliptic curve cryptography on embedded systems. Since I often have to ...
