The famous cryptographers Leonard Adleman, Ronald Rivest, and Adi Shamir – the developers of the RSA encryption code – received the Association for Computing Machinery’s 2002 Turing Award “for their ...

Wang Chao and his colleagues at Shanghai University have announced that they have developed a method to break RSA encryption, a cryptography whose security is based on the difficulty of prime ...

Is cryptography, the guardian of our digital security, crumbling in the face of quantum computers' power? A group of Chinese researchers appears to have reached a milestone by breaking RSA encryption ...

There is a potential dark side to quantum computing, one that is a threat to how we secure data. Back in 1994, Peter Shor developed an algorithm for factoring large numbers using a quantum computer, ...

The experts have weighed in: Non-fungible tokens are dumb as hell. The annual RSA Conference brings together some of the brightest minds in cryptography to discuss advances in the field, the year's ...

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 ...

DEF CON 33, the world's largest security event held in Las Vegas in August 2025, Konstantinos Karagiannis, a leading expert in quantum computing and cybersecurity, gave a presentation titled ' ...

Within a decade, the growth of powerful quantum computers will lead to a new era in security, in which once-impenetrable public-key techniques like RSA and ECC will fall to higher levels of brute ...

In the end, critical infrastructure’s biggest quantum risk is the outdated, manual trust models of today. Only by replacing ...
