A formula used to turn ordinary data, or "plaintext," into a secret coded message known as "ciphertext." The ciphertext can reside in storage or travel over unsecure networks without its contents ...
Cryptography is something of a cryptic field, if you’ll forgive the pun. While one researcher erects the walls of a new technique, another tries to smash it to pieces. Seemingly counterintuitive, near ...
The new Ascon lightweight IP core offers a smaller alternative for devices with limited resources. April 27, 2023-- Xiphera releases XIP2201B, an IP core which supports the Ascon lightweight ...
A proprietary algorithm developed by RSA Data Security, Inc., RC2 is an alternative to DES. The algorithm expands a single message by up to 8 bytes. RC2 is a block cipher that encrypts data in blocks ...
Scientists develop a chaos-based stream cipher that can withstand attacks from large-scale quantum computers. Fast algorithms on quantum computers could easily break many widely used cryptosystems, ...
Before we move into the meat of this article, let’s define a couple terms related to cryptography. The syllable crypt may make you think of tombs, but it comes from a Greek word that means “hidden” or ...
The Protocol-IP-338 (EIP-338) is a scalable, high-performance, multi-stream cryptographic engine that offers XTS and GCM modes of operation for the AES algorithms on bulk data. Its flexible ... The ...
