When spies meet, they use secret handshakes to confirm their identities, ensuring they are who they say they are. Now, researchers at Stevens Institute of Technology, and colleagues, have solved a 15-year-old problem that allows handshake-style encryption to be used for time-delayed digital communications such as email – a challenge once thought to be impossible. The work, led by Giuseppe Ateniese, David and GG Farber Endowed Chair in Computer Science, dramatically expands the technology’s utility … More → The post Cryptographic breakthrough allows using handshake-style encryption for time-delayed communications appeared first on Help Net Security.
