After nine years of research and competitions, the National Institute of Standards and Technology released the final version of its Secure Hash Algorithm-3 standard Wednesday. SHA-3 is a cryptographic ...

This is achieved with cryptographic proof mechanisms, which generate irrefutable, mathematically-validated evidence that ...

The PKI industry recommends that every SHA-1 enabled PKI move to the vastly more secure SHA-2. Here's why and how. For the past two years, I’ve been busy helping Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) ...

An algorithm that transforms a given amount of data (the "message") into a fixed number of digits, known as the "hash," "digest" or "digital fingerprint." Hash functions are a fundamental component in ...

As the digital economy accelerates and data security becomes a global priority, VEST Labs has officially unveiled its breakthrough innovation — VEST Hash, a next-generation cryptographic hash ...

So far in this chapter we have focused on the choice of a single class of algorithms, hashes, as a way to get the most performance out of our security. While hashes are extremely useful for a wide ...

eSpeaks’ Corey Noles talks with Rob Israch, President of Tipalti, about what it means to lead with Global-First Finance and how companies can build scalable, compliant operations in an increasingly ...

I am having a hard time understanding exactly how salting passwords works in linux, and was hoping someone can help me understand it better. I understand the general concept of cryptographic salt, but ...

As the U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) prepares to announce the winner of its competition to find the next-generation cryptographic hash algorithm, ...
