In this paper, the authors propose the application of cryptography algorithm to ensure secure communication across the virtual networks. In cryptography, ...

One algorithm, a pseudo-random bit generator, Dual_EC_DRBG, was ratified by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2007 and is attracting a lot of attention for having a ...

Do you feel nervous when you make a credit-card transaction using your mobile phone? Your worries could soon be a thing of the past, thanks to a low-cost device that could bring powerful cryptography ...

Fast quantum random number generator could advance cryptography on the cheap According to Jun Zhang, a physicist at Hefei and a co-author of the research published in Applied Physics Letters, the ...

The world’s first practical quantum random number generator (QRNG) will reportedly overcome weaknesses of current encryption, revolutionizing internet security.

The method used to generate the digits, a pair of 555 timers sending pulses through linear-feedback shift registers, would at best be considered pseudo-random.

What they have created is an algorithm which ensures that seemingly random numbers really are as random as they look.

Microsoft has acknowledged that Windows XP is plagued by the same encryption flaws Israeli researchers recently unveiled in Windows 2000; a fix will be included in the XP SP3 due out next year.
