Eventually, a network of quantum computers could enable the creation of a more secure quantum internet hh5800/Getty Images To shop on the unhackable quantum internet, we will need new security techniques. Though we do not have a fully operational quantum internet yet, researchers have now demonstrated a proof of concept for secure quantum e-commerce. Hua-Lei …
We probably don’t need to worry about quantum computers being able to break encryption in 2024, but cryptographers are planning a security upgrade just in case Source link
Faulty encryption can put data at risk Yuichiro Chino/Getty Images Hardware faults are leaking hundreds of supposedly unbreakable encryption keys on to the internet, researchers have found – and spy agencies may be exploiting the loophole to read secret messages. RSA is a widely-used encryption scheme that depends on two numbers – a public key, …
The Vatican’s archives contain thousands of manuscripts that are encrypted Vatican Apostolic Archive BEATA MEGYESI strode past the Pontifical Swiss Guards, in their Renaissance-era uniforms. She was headed not for the Sistine Chapel or St Peter’s Basilica, but the Vatican’s archives. Precious few people are allowed into this legendary collection of documents and letters spanning 12 centuries. …
It has long been known that one day quantum computers will probably be able to crack the RSA encryption method we use to keep data safe, but a team of researchers is now claiming it is already possible, while others say the results require more scrutiny Technology 5 January 2023 By Matthew Sparkes RSA is …
A cryptographic tool inserts a detectable signature in the words produced by OpenAI’s text-generating artificial intelligence models. It could help teachers stop students using AIs to do their homework Technology 13 December 2022 By Matthew Sparkes It can be tough to determine whether words originated from a text-generating AI or human Manuel Breva Colmeiro/Getty Images …
