The future of data privacy is the end of compromise. With the world producing data at astounding rates, we need ways to put data to the best use while protecting against breaches and ensuring privacy, data protection and access control.
Some popular projects using implementations of Kyber are Mullvad VPN and Signal messenger. The KyberSlash flaws are timing-based attacks arising from how Kyber performs certain division operations in the decapsulation process, allowing attackers to analyze the execution time and derive secrets that could compromise the encryption.
Ransomware groups are increasingly switching to remote encryption in their attacks, marking a new escalation in tactics adopted by financially motivated actors to ensure the success of their...
At its core, encryption involves the use of algorithms, mathematical functions that manipulate data into a seemingly random and indecipherable form. This encoded information, referred to as ciphertext, can only be converted back into its original, meaningful state by those possessing the appropriate cryptographic key.
It’s happened. Details here, and tech details here (for messages in transit) and here (for messages in storage) Rollout to everyone will take months, but it’s a good day for both privacy and...
Meta is introducing default end-to-end encryption for chats and calls across Messenger and Facebook, the company revealed on Wednesday. "We've introduced new privacy, safety and control features along the way like delivery controls that let people choose who can message them, as well as app lock, alongside existing safety features like report, block and message requests," said Loredana Crisan, Head of Messenger at Meta.
Meta has announced that the immediate availability of end-to-end encryption for all chats and calls made through the Messenger app, as well as the Facebook social media platform.E2EE has been available in the Messenger app as an optional feature called "Secret Conversations" since 2016 but Meta says it now enables it by default for all users as an additional layer of security.
Meta has officially begun to roll out support for end-to-end encryption (E2EE) in Messenger for personal calls and one-to-one personal messages by default in what it called the "most significant...
The best way to accomplish the important task of securing business data is with sophisticated encryption systems. This glossary from TechRepublic Premium covers encryption vocabulary and helps you make sense of this important security infrastructure.
A set of encryption algorithms used to secure emergency radio communications will enter the public domain after an about-face by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute. The algorithms are used by TETRA - short for the Terrestrial Trunked Radio protocol - and they are operated by governments, law enforcement, military and emergency services organizations in Europe, the UK, and other countries.
