Every online bank transfer, private message and Bitcoin transaction rests on the assumption that some math problems are ...

TL;DR: Although often labeled a "dark web" associated with criminal activity and illicit marketplaces, Tor is an invaluable tool for protecting online privacy. Developers are now working to make the ...

Tor has announced improved encryption and security for the circuit traffic by replacing the old tor1 relay encryption algorithm with a new design called Counter Galois Onion (CGO). One reason behind ...

U.S. government information networks handling controlled unclassified and national security information are under continual cyber attack by sophisticated peer and near-peer adversaries. Evolving cyber ...

Two years ago, researchers in the Netherlands discovered an intentional backdoor in an encryption algorithm baked into radios used by critical infrastructure–as well as police, intelligence agencies, ...

Cambridge, MA – If you rotate an image of a molecular structure, a human can tell the rotated image is still the same molecule, but a machine-learning model might think it is a new data point. In ...

Abstract: Symmetric encryption algorithms learned by the previous proposed end-to-end adversarial network encryption communication systems are deterministic. With the same key and same plaintext, the ...

Quantum computers could crack a common data encryption technique once they have a million qubits, or quantum bits. While this is still well beyond the capabilities of existing quantum computers, this ...

Microsoft is updating Windows 11 with a set of new encryption algorithms that can withstand future attacks from quantum computers in a move aimed at jump-starting what’s likely to be the most ...

The Signal group chat incident, where top Trump administration officials discussed classified military operations on a platform designed for consumer privacy, has exposed more than just a lapse in ...
