Public and private keys are the fundamental building blocks of secure transactions in the world of cryptocurrencies. These cryptographic instruments existed long before digital currencies were ...

An encryption method for transmitting data that uses key pairs, comprising one private and one public key. Public key cryptography is called "asymmetric encryption" because both keys are not equal. A ...

In my previous article/video how does encryption work? I wrote about the principles of encryption starting with the Caesar cipher and following the development of cryptography through to the modern ...

As a Bitcoiner, you’re going to need a secure way to communicate privately, without relying on a company to encrypt your data for you. For example, freely available methods with end-to-end encryption ...

From Caesar ciphers to AES and RSA, Practical Microcontroller Cryptography shows how cryptography actually runs on ...

Researchers have reached a new milestone in the annals of cryptography with the factoring of the largest RSA key size ever computed and a matching computation of the largest-ever integer discrete ...

We don’t know when, but it will happen: Quantum computers will become so powerful that all existing public-key cryptography protections will be quickly crackable. According to Dr. Mark Jackson of ...

Two popular AES libraries, aes-js and pyaes, “helpfully” provide a default IV in their AES-CTR API, leading to a large number of key/IV reuse bugs. These bugs potentially affect thousands of ...

Encryption is one of the pillars of modern-day communications. You have devices that use encryption all the time, even if you are not aware of it. There are so many applications and systems using it ...
