When this era of quantum computing arrives, we will reach the point where post-quantum cryptography (PCQ) becomes essential.

Behind the hype lies a grounded, strategic reality: transitioning to post-quantum cryptography is about preparation, not panic.

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.

Some cryptographers are looking for RSA replacements because the algorithm is just one encryption algorithm that may be vulnerable to new machines that exploit quantum effects in electronics.

But he faults its core idea that the RSA algorithm is somehow fundamentally flawed. “I’d say all cryptography relies on good true random-number generation.

RSA Security Inc. unexpectedly released the widely used RSA public-key encryption algorithm into the public domain ahead of this week's expiration of the patent on the algorithm -- a move that's ...

RSA is an encryption technique developed in the late 1970s that involves generating public and private keys; the former is used for encryption and the latter decryption.
