Deep Hashing is one of the most important methods for generating compact feature representation in content-based image retrieval. However, in various application scenarios, it requires training ...

Two fundamental cryptographic algorithms, SHA-256 (Secure Hash Algorithm 256-bit) and RIPEMD-160 (RACE Integrity Primitives Evaluation Message Digest 160), play a pivotal role in the Bitcoin ecosystem ...

The SHA-1 hashing algorithm, still used to sign almost one in three SSL certificates, can now be attacked for as little as $75,000, and should be urgently retired, researchers say ...

The MD5 password hash algorithm is "no longer considered safe" by the original software developer, a day after the leak of more than 6.4 million hashed LinkedIn passwords.

Researchers have found a new way to attack the SHA-1 hashing algorithm, still used to sign almost one in three SSL certificates that secure major websites, making it more urgent than ever to ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting a competition to choose a new secure hashing algorithm, and the contest will end Friday, by which time the agency hopes to ...
