EnSilica has created a combined hardware IP block that supports the full CRYSTALS post-quantum cryptography (PQC) suite.

EnSilica, a leading maker of mixed-signal ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), has developed a combined hardware IP block supporting the full CRYSTALS post-quantum cryptography (PQC) ...

ASIC resistance ensures fair distribution and decentralization in crypto mining. This in-depth article explores what ...

Description This is a feature request to add SHA-512 hash algorithm support to Trivy's SBOM parsing capabilities. Currently, Trivy only supports SHA-1, SHA-256, and MD5 hash algorithms when processing ...

While SHA-256 is much less vulnerable, Grover’s quantum algorithm reduces the brute-force attack time, essentially halving its effective key length—meaning a 256-bit hash would be as secure as ...

The quest to make biometric data private and secure has led to the development of biometric hashing. Hashing is a one-way process in which an algorithm called a cryptographic hash function takes an ...

In the case of a cryptographic function like SHA-256 (Secure Hash Algorithm 256-bit), developed by the NSA, it would produce 256 bits (32 Bytes) as the fixed length of a hash from an input of ...

What is the Hash Function Used by Bitcoin and How Does it Work? The Bitcoin network uses the SHA-256 algorithm, which stands for Secure Hash Algorithm 256, to generate hashes for each transaction and ...

More specifically, the level of security offered by the SHA-256 algorithm makes it a more interesting choice compared to other hashing techniques. Moreover, due to the many available tools, whether on ...
