Many embedded systems depend on obscurity to achieve security. We often design systems to download unsigned or unencrypted firmware upgrades or store unencrypted user data, a practice we justify ...
According to a study by engineers at Caltech and the UC Department of Physics, quantum computers do not need to be nearly as ...
Attackers are harvesting your encrypted data today to decrypt with quantum computers tomorrow. Your 2019 VPN sessions, emails ...
RSA, the internet security firm, has advised its customers not to use a particular encryption algorithm after fears it could be unlocked by the US National Security Agency (NSA). In an advisory note ...
Researchers affiliated with Caltech and the quantum computing startup Oratomic have published a preprint claiming that Shor’s ...
Quantum computers could crack a common data encryption technique once they have a million qubits, or quantum bits. While this is still well beyond the capabilities of existing quantum computers, this ...
Imagine if, tomorrow, someone invented a “digital skeleton key” that could unlock any keyless entry system. Overnight, millions of door locks, garages and practically every modern vehicle would become ...
