In theory, quantum physics can bypass the hard mathematical problems at the root of modern encryption. A new proof shows how.

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

The Quantum Bitcoin Summit brought together experts in both quantum computing and Bitcoin, this is a summary of the event.

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) ...

Stateless hash-based cryptography (SPHINCS+) utilizes cryptographic hash functions and Merkle trees to create digital signatures that are believed to be resistant to quantum attacks.

According to André Dragosch, PhD (@Andre_Dragosch), Bitcoin leverages the SHA-256 cryptographic hash function, which is fundamental to its network security and resistance against double spending or ...

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 ...

Ethereum cofounder Vitalik Buterin has made a notable call to developers regarding Poseidon, a cryptographic hash function. In an update shared on X, Buterin encouraged researchers to participate in ...

A breakdown of what type of risks quantum computing poses to Bitcoin, and how worried users of the network should be. In the early 2020s, quantum computing hit the public spotlight as a potential ...

Cryptographic hashes have a security requirement, which is usually phrased in terms of resistance to collisions and pre-images. Indeed, for a cryptographic hash function, knowing the hash output ...
