We all know the usual jokes about the ‘S’ in ‘IoT’ standing for ‘Security’. It’s hardly a secret that security in embedded, networked devices (‘IoT devices’) is all too often a last-minute task that ...
In discussing the Visual Studio Code Name "Orcas" January 2007 CTP I mentioned its managed classes for Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman and Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm cryptographic ...
The elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem (ECDLP) lies at the heart of modern public-key cryptography. It concerns the challenge of determining an unknown scalar multiplier given two points on an ...
Google last week announced an experiment with post-quantum cryptography in Chrome. A small fraction of connections between Google’s servers and Chrome on the desktop will use a post-quantum ...
Every reliable system starts with security. From IoT devices sending data to the cloud, to automotive ECUs verifying their identity, to industrial machines coordinating in real time, all depend on ...
According to one of the world’s leading cryptographers, Bitcoin’s elliptic curve could have a secret backdoor, invalidating all underlying security. A Bitcoin public key is created by applying ...
