What is the International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA)? The International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA) is a symmetric key block cipher encryption algorithm designed to encrypt text to an ...

NIST also considered that the algorithm had withstood the test of time, having been developed in 2014 by a team of cryptographers from Graz University of Technology, Infineon Technologies, Lamarr ...

Blowfish is a variable-length, symmetric, 64-bit block cipher. Designed by Bruce Schneier in 1993 as a "general-purpose algorithm," it was intended to provide a fast, free, drop-in alternative to the ...

Quantum computing represents a looming—and inevitable—threat to almost every aspect of our digital world that is protected by current forms of encryption. Either within this decade or the next, ...

Viettel and the Government Cipher Committee have developed a 28-nanometer security chip that encrypts and decrypts data 15 times faster than software-based solutions.

ASCON is the name of the group of lightweight authenticated encryption and hashing algorithms that the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has chosen to secure the data ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology announced the first series of quantum-resistant computer algorithms, a major development to secure digital information in a post-quantum world.

In my blog “The Importance of Memory Encryption for Protecting Data in Use,” I discussed the growing industry consensus on the imperative of incorporating memory encryption in computing architectures.
