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

Quantum computing is a catalyst for rethinking how organizations govern, secure and manage cryptographic systems.

Behind the hype lies a grounded, strategic reality: transitioning to post-quantum cryptography is about preparation, not ...

- Japan's only 128-bit block cipher encryption algorithm to be adopted - The selection is attributed to Camellia's high reputation for ease of procurement, and security and performance features ...

Early encryption algorithms like these had to be applied manually by the sender and receiver. They typically consisted of simple letter rearrangement, such a transposition or substitution.

These algorithms take a block of plaintext and the encryption key as input and run them through a subprocess that repeats for a set number of rounds before outputting a finished ciphertext.
