Claude Mythos Preview discovered new attacks in testing against weakened cryptographic algorithms, which protect online ...

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 ...

With the AI Claude, Anthropic searched for vulnerabilities in crypto algorithms. It found them in a post-quantum crypto ...

One of the most well-established and disruptive uses for a future quantum computer is the ability to crack encryption. A new algorithm could significantly lower the barrier to achieving this. Despite ...

A post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algorithm being considered for a future United States cybersecurity standard has been ...

This story originally appeared on Ars Technica, a trusted source for technology news, tech policy analysis, reviews, and more. Ars is owned by WIRED's parent company, Condé Nast. Last month, the US ...

Anthropic’s Claude Mythos AI discovered a novel way to crack a weakened version of AES encryption, raising fresh concerns ...

For more than 25 years, a technology used for critical data and voice radio communications around the world has been shrouded in secrecy to prevent anyone from closely scrutinizing its security ...

Update: On 18 April, Yilei Chen announced an issue with his algorithm which he does not know how to fix. This means the algorithm does not undermine the mathematics behind post-quantum cryptography.

BitLocker may have vulnerabilities, but I’m still recommending it (and its Device Encryption derivative) to users.

Two years ago, researchers in the Netherlands discovered an intentional backdoor in an encryption algorithm baked into radios used by critical infrastructure–as well as police, intelligence agencies, ...
