The clock is ticking on cryptocurrency.

A recent research paper makes the claim that the RSA cryptographic algorithm can be broken with a quantum algorithm. Skeptics warn: don’t believe everything you read. Every CISO has encryption ...

With around 26,000 qubits, the encryption could be broken in a day, the researchers report in a paper submitted March 30 to ...

A recent, yet to be proven paper claiming to have found a way to "destroy the RSA cryptosystem" has cryptographers asking what might replace it. What if a big crack appeared overnight in the ...

Researchers affiliated with Caltech and the quantum computing startup Oratomic have published a preprint claiming that Shor’s ...

Researchers at Black Hat USA 2013 made a call for usage of elliptic curve cryptography in favor of the RSA algorithm, which the experts said could be cracked in the next five years. LAS VEGAS – ...

Building a utility-scale quantum computer that can crack one of the most vital cryptosystems—elliptic curves—doesn’t require ...

Research suggests fault-tolerant quantum machines could arrive sooner than expected, posing a threat to Bitcoin and Ethereum cryptography.

Las Vegas — Within five years the math for cracking encryption algorithms could become so efficient that it may render today’s commonly used RSA public key cryptography algorithm obsolete, Black Hat ...

In the last section we discussed the potential for optimizing algorithms, which can be done, but sometimes may not result in the type of performance required. As was mentioned, you can always move the ...
