Cryptographic Techniques Understanding SSL requires an understanding of cryptographic algorithms, message digest functions (aka. one-way or hash functions), and digital signatures.

Once the initial transaction is complete, the key that was exchanged during the initial RSA phase can now be used for SSL or VPN bulk encryption with algorithms like RC5, 3DES, or AES.

Hackers are increasingly benefiting from poorly managed encryption technologies deployed by organizations, according to a new repor t from application networking and security firm A10 Networks in ...

As NIST rolls out advanced PQC standards to address the ‘Harvest now, decrypt later’ threat, a new report suggests that a ...

News CloudFlare reveals ‘Universal SSL’: Free, headache-free encryption for websites By Mikael Ricknäs Sep 29, 2014 8:23 am PDT ...

We explain What is Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) and the main differences between these two technologies.

It was partially mitigated by switching to different encryption algorithms (though those encryption algorithms have abundant security problems of their own) and some changes to SSL clients to ...

Once quantum computers become functional, experts warn, they could perform calculations exponentially faster than classical computers—potentially enabling them to destroy the encryption that ...

Researchers found that an encryption algorithm likely used by law enforcement and special forces can have weaknesses that ...
