In the realm of secure communications, data exchange and secret key agreement algorithms are pivotal for establishing confidentiality and ensuring the integrity of information transmitted over ...

NIST will then begin accepting proposals for quantum-resistant public key encryption, digital signatures, and key exchange algorithms, with a deadline in late 2017.

How Does "Encrypted Key Exchange" Work?. Encrypted key exchange is a protocol, or set of rules, that allows two parties sharing a common password to communicate over an insecure network without ...

More technically speaking, Curve25519 is a key exchange algorithm while ChaCha20-Poly1305 is being used to encrypt and authenticate data transmitted over the secure channel.

The transition to quantum-safe cryptography represents more than just a necessary upgrade—it's an opportunity to catalyze broader improvements in industry practices.

The report covers network design, device passwords and password management, remote logging and administration, security updates, key exchange algorithms, and important protocols such as Network ...

The National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) today published standards for a long-awaited FIPS-compliant version of the Kyber Post-Quantum Key Exchange algorithm. This marks an ...

Key exchange using “classic” Diffie-Hellman is also disappearing from the SSH server, as it offers no performance advantages over key exchange using elliptic curves or quantum-safe algorithms.

A good cipher doesn’t need an ultra-long key size. If the cipher algorithm is good, smaller key sizes can be used and the cipher will remain strong.
