Google is encouraging businesses and security practitioners to utilize cryptographic hashes like SHA-256, a Secure Hash Algorithm which serves as the basis of the Bitcoin network’s proof of work (PoW) ...

Google researchers say cracking RSA encryption now needs 20x fewer qubits than previously estimated. Bitcoin uses ECC and SHA-256, which are stronger than RSA, but the timeline for cracking them may ...

The benefits of blockchain technology, Bitcoin included, are indisputable. Yet, it features several flaws pertaining to speed, transaction fees, and security, all of which affect scalability. In an ...

Earlier this month, Google announced a brand-new quantum chip dubbed Willow. The 105-qubit chip — that's double the qubit ...

For more than 10 years, SHA-1 authentication was used to protect intellectual property (IP) from counterfeiting and illegal copying. But now, as information processing has advanced, engineers want an ...

The DS28C22 is a DeepCover® secure authenticator with I²C interface that uses the SHA-256 algorithm for bidirectional authentication. Additional features, including a 3Kb user EEPROM array, multiple ...

Tens of millions of Internet users will be cut off from encrypted webpages in the coming months unless sites are permitted to continue using SHA1, a cryptographic hashing function that’s being retired ...
