Concerns that quantum computers may start easily hacking into previously secure communications has motivated researchers to ...

In a new approach to security that unites technology and art, E researchers have combined silver nanostructures with polarized light to yield a range of brilliant colors, which can be used to encode ...

Cryptography is something of a new field for Olivier Martin, who has been studying the optics of nanostructures for many years as head of the Nanophotonics and Metrology Lab EPFL’s School of ...

Eruces Data Security has secured a patent for its three-step encryption and key management scheme, which is designed to lock down data through its lifecycle. The security firm’s so-called Tricryption ...

Security teams are torn between the quest to encrypt everything and the technical feasibility of doing so. The advantage of encryption is that it obscures data, even after a breach, and satisfies ...

It was only a matter of time before we learned that the NSA has managed to thwart much of the encryption that protects telephone and online communication, but new revelations show the extent to which ...

Internet-connected gadgets like light bulbs and fitness trackers are notorious for poor security. That's partly because they’re often made cheaply and with haste, which leads to careless mistakes and ...

New kinds of encryption methods have been developed for improving the privacy protection of consumers to enable safer, more reliable and easier-to-use user authentication than current systems allow.

The fatal flaw of encrypted backups: You are locking yourself out of your own data ...
