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 ...

Public key encryption with equality test (PKEET) represents a significant advance in cryptographic research. This technology allows a designated tester to determine whether two independently generated ...

Public key encryption has long been a cornerstone in securing digital communications, allowing messages to be encrypted with a recipient’s publicly available key while only being decrypted by the ...

If you’ve picked up a newspaper in the last two weeks, you’ve probably read something about digital encryption. It’s at the heart of the debate between the FBI and Apple: Can the government compel the ...

A new global survey reveals a dangerous gap in preparation for the quantum computing threat that might only be three years away.

In 1976, Martin E. Hellman and Whitfield Diffie created public-key cryptography—and with it transformed the world of digital security. Now, they’ve been honored with the 2016 Turing Award, often ...

On April 24, the FBI's war against public key encryption technology—the kind many of us use for texting, emailing, and online banking—entered a new phase. The FBI published a notice in the Federal ...

Public and private key cryptography is a powerful solution. The former (asymmetric cryptography) involves a pair of keys that ...

The inventors of public key cryptography have won the 2015 Turing Award, just as a contentious debate kicks off in Washington over how much protection encryption should really provide. The Association ...

As the technology of computing has become more integrated into our daily lives, information security is becoming an increasing challenge. More and more confidential personal information, legal ...

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 ...
