Vitalik Buterin warns AI could weaken cryptography within two years, backing hash-based defenses while cautioning against rushed wallet moves.

ESET's Cassius Puodzius takes an in-depth look at cryptography, exploring quantum computing (one of the resources in the toolkit of cryptanalysts). One of the resources in the toolkit of cryptanalysts ...

This paper investigates novel techniques to solve prime factorization by quantum annealing (QA). First, we present a very-compact modular encodingof a multiplier circuit into the architecture of ...

Researchers at China's Shanghai University have demonstrated how quantum mechanics could pose a realistic threat to current encryption schemes even before full-fledged quantum computers become ...
