What’s the best way to solve hard problems? That’s the question at the heart of a subfield of computer science called computational complexity theory. It’s a hard question to answer, but flip it ...

Prepare for the quantum computing era and its cybersecurity risks. We discuss how post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and secure-memory solutions protect industries and supply chains. The importance of ...

Samsung SDS announced on the 11th that the "AIMer" algorithm, developed in collaboration with KAIST, has been selected as the final algorithm in the "quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithm for ...

Before proceeding, I want to stress that everything I refer to here relates to mistakes made when using (good) cryptographic libraries. The challenge of implementing the low-level cryptographic ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Hard problems are usually not a welcome sight. But cryptographers love them. That’s because certain hard math problems underpin the ...
