You may have seen some VPN providers boasting about using AES-256 encryption, but it’s not immediately apparent what this means or how it helps keep your data safe. Essentially, VPNs use ...

This paper proposes a high-throughput implementation of AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) supporting encryption and decryption with 128-bit cipher key.

Researchers at Fox-IT have developed a technique for cracking AES-256 encryption without the key and from up to a meter away.

Marriot revealed in a court case around a massive 2018 data breach that it had been using secure hash algorithm 1 and not the much more secure AES-1 encryption as it had earlier maintained.

If a “lightweight” algorithm is used, there are no guarantees the data will be protected from mathematic cryptanalysts given that the amount of data used in memory encryption is typically huge. Well ...
