Chipmaker NXP Semiconductors is introducing post-quantum cryptography (PQC) into its products, prioritising devices aimed at automotive, industrial IoT and identity applications. During a webinar, ...

In the tiny ST54M, STMicroelectronics combines two ARM cores with a hardware accelerator for the PQC algorithms ML-KEM (FIPS-203) and ML-DSA (FIPS-204).

While Bitcoin mining often dominates headlines, many miners today operate across multiple algorithms. Two of the most important ecosystems in proof-of-work mining are SHA-256 and Scrypt — each with ...

In February 2026, Digest Authentication support for SHA-256 and SHA-512-256 algorithms was added to the reSIProcate stack, in compliance with RFC 7616 and RFC 8760. The implementation extends both ...

Cisco routers utilize cryptographic features, such as IPsec VPNs, to secure network communications. IPsec combines encryption, hashing, and authentication for secure data transfer. Key components: ...

The X509_NAME_hash_ex method used by X509_issuer_name_hash and X509_subject_name_hash currently uses the SHA1 algorithm to generate the hash (and has since MD5 usage was deprecated long ago). However, ...

Crypto thrives on cutting-edge technology, but quantum computing could challenge the cryptographic foundations that keep Bitcoin secure. As quantum advancements accelerate, concerns about risks to ...

While passwords remain the first line of defense for protecting user accounts against unauthorized access, the methods for creating strong passwords and protecting them are continually evolving. For ...

What Exactly Does the Hash Value Represent? A hash value (hash or hash value) is a numerical value used to represent data. It is a unique, fixed-length string of characters created by executing a ...
