Neal Koblitz is a mathematician who, starting in the 1980s, became fascinated by mathematical questions in cryptography. In his article "The Uneasy Relationship Between Mathematics and Cryptography," ...

​For much of the past decade, post-quantum cryptography (PQC) lived primarily in academic journals and standards committees.

Quantum computing is widely believed to be a revolutionary new technology. In fact, it is a double-edged sword. If efficient quantum computers can be manufactured in near future, many of the current ...

Quantum computing is widely expected to disrupt modern cryptography. Many of today’s encryption systems rely on mathematical ...

Hard problems are usually not a welcome sight. But cryptographers love them. That’s because certain hard math problems underpin the security of modern encryption. Any clever trick for solving them ...

It all begins with mathematics really - the one true scientific language, so they say. Cryptography has been around as early as 4000 years ago, doing what it still does today - ensuring that secrets ...

A simple geometric idea has been used to power advances in information theory, cryptography and even blockchain technology. But while the work has generated a lot of excitement among pure ...

Quantum cryptography is back in the news, and the basic idea is still unbelievably cool, in theory, and nearly useless in real life. The idea behind quantum crypto is that two people communicating ...

TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Not many people are dedicated to the study and application of quantum-resistant or post-quantum cryptography (PQC) in Taiwan, but one young data scientist at Academia Sinica ...
