Two University of Illinois at Chicago math professors have just embarked on a not-so-secret mission: write a textbook that teaches cryptography and coding theory to middle-school students in a way ...

Code-based cryptography employs error-correcting codes as the basis for secure public-key schemes, leveraging the intrinsic difficulty of decoding a random linear ...

Beyond advanced mathematics or theoretical computing breakthroughs, PQC is about protecting the systems enterprises already ...

Non-malleable coding is a cryptographic paradigm that ensures any tampering with an encoded message either leaves the original message intact or produces an output entirely unrelated to it. Unlike ...

Will quantum computers crack cryptographic codes and cause a global security disaster? You might certainly get that impression from a lot of news coverage, the latest of which reports new estimates ...

This is the third installment in Reason's four-part documentary series titled "Cypherpunks Write Code." Watch the complete series here. In 1977, a team of cryptographers at MIT made an astonishing ...

Denis Mandich, CTO of Qrypt, a quantum cybersecurity company, and founding member of the Quantum Economic Development Consortium and CQT. Most watching the SaaSpocalypse have identified the wrong ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In our increasingly digital lives, security depends on cryptography. Send a private message or pay a bill online, and you’re relying on ...

Hard problems are usually not a welcome sight. But cryptographers love them. That’s because certain hard math problems underpin the security of modern encryption. Any clever trick for solving them ...

New estimates suggest it might be 20 times easier to crack cryptography with quantum computers than we thought—but don't panic. Will quantum computers crack cryptographic codes and cause a global ...
