Algorithms for encrypting computer data come in two main varieties: symmetric and asymmetric. Each encryption type has inherent strengths and weaknesses. Symmetric algorithms convert plain-text data ...

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 ...

NSS with ML-KEM and ML-DSA algorithms passes lab testing and enters Modules in Process list, making Rocky Linux from CIQ one of the first Enterprise Linux distributions advancing FIPS-validated ...

Over the past several years, there has been a steady drumbeat of warnings about the impact of quantum computing on traditional encryption ...

Whenever we talk about end-to-end encrypted data, we're usually talking about messaging apps like iMessage, Signal, WhatsApp, and Google's RCS. But plenty of other data is encrypted to ensure ...

Quantum computers may become a security threat as early as next year, and that threat will continue to grow over the next several years.

This step-by-step guide shows Linux users how to secure cloud-stored files with VeraCrypt by encrypting data locally, keeping ...
