Every encrypted text you send today could be stored by an adversary and cracked open years from now by a quantum computer ...

Quantum power is calculated in qubits. Every 10 qubits supports 1,024 computations, giving hackers 1,024 times the power to break encryption in one swoop, Steward illustrated. There are now machines ...

For the first time in India, the Data Security Council of India (DSCI) has recognised a domestically built quantum-safe ...

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 ...

Quantum computers powerful enough to break widely used public-key encryption aren’t here yet, but migration won’t be as simple as swapping in a new tool.

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In our increasingly digital lives, security depends on cryptography. Send a private message or pay a bill online, and you’re relying on ...

Fabric Cryptography, a startup focused on hardware, has raised $33 million in a Series A fundraising round co-led by Blockchain Capital and 1kx. Other participating investors included Offchain Labs, ...

Michael Gao, the co-founder of California-based start-up Fabric Cryptography, makes a bold claim. “We’re going to do for cryptography what Nvidia has done for artificial intelligence (AI),” he says.

Digital secrets are protected by encryption, which converts meaningful data into an unintelligible form. If quantum computers ...

Two researchers have improved a well-known technique for lattice basis reduction, opening up new avenues for practical experiments in cryptography and mathematics. In our increasingly digital lives, ...
