Two researchers have improved a well-known technique for lattice basis reduction, opening up new avenues for practical experiments in cryptography and mathematics.

The Triple Data Encryption Standard, or Triple DES algorithm, evolved from the original DES algorithm introduced as a standard in 1976 (Reference 2, page 3). DES uses 56 bits of a 64-bit key to ...

What does encryption algorithm actually mean? Find out inside PCMag's comprehensive tech and computer-related encyclopedia.

Chapter 3 of the Cryptographic Handbook delves into how modern cryptographic algorithms are implemented.

The algorithm expands a single message by up to 8 bytes. DES is a block cipher that encrypts data in blocks of 64 bits. SAS Proprietary This provides basic fixed encoding encryption services on all ...

Triple DES executes DES three times on the data in order to exploit a key size that is three times that of DES. The algorithm expands a single message by up to 8 bytes. DES is a block cipher that ...

The DES algorithm was (officially) developed by IBM after NBS solicited proposals for its encryption standard. At the time, there was concern over certain aspects of the algorithm's design.

[Part 1 of this article begins with a review of various application security level categories and a look at hash algorithms as a basic level of security. Part 2 covers the basics for optimizing ...

In these post-quantum cryptography algorithms the keys are vectors, directions through the maze of a structured lattice.

New algorithm shakes up cryptography Date: May 15, 2014 Source: CNRS Summary: Researchers have solved one aspect of the discrete logarithm problem. This is considered to be one of the 'holy grails ...
