The commonly used RSA encryption algorithm can now be cracked by a quantum computer with only 100,000 qubits, but the technical challenges to building such a machine remain numerous ...

The research, led by ETH Zurich's Applied Cryptography Group, tested core encryption systems in the three most widely used ...

One of the main reasons password manager providers haven't upgraded their codebases is that they fear doing so would irrevocably lose existing users' secrets. The researchers said that some vendors ...

The GNU C compiler is excellent with reasoning about Boolean values. It may be too clever. Like Microsoft Clippy-level clever. Meusel ran a constant-time implementation through GCC 15.2 (with ...

Password manager software has transformed digital security, moving beyond simple lists of usernames and passwords to encrypted vaults with cloud sync, TOTP generation, and breach monitoring. Modern ...

Passwd is designed specifically for organizations operating within Google Workspace. Rather than competing as a general consumer password manager, its purpose is narrow, and business-focused: secure ...

Abstract: This paper discusses how to implement Paillier homomorphic encryption (HE) scheme in Java as an API. We first analyze existing Pailler HE libraries and discuss their limitations. We then ...

We all have plenty of online accounts. Using the same password for all of them isn’t safe; if one gets hacked, all our accounts are compromised. You shouldn’t ...

Vlad Matsiiako is in the business of secrets. “If secrets aren’t there, then it’s just not possible for software to run,” said Matsiiako, CEO and cofounder of Infisical. “Databases can’t connect to ...
