RSS cryptographyStay One Step Ahead With Comodo 2048-Bit Certificates
White Paper Leading cryptography organizations, including NIST, have issued recommendations for entities to upgrade to longer key lengths. If one is still using a 1024-bit certificate, one may soon be vulnerable to a "Brute-Force... [05 Oct 2009]
Dynamic Routing With Security Considerations
White Paper Different from the past work on the designs of cryptography algorithms and system infrastructures, the paper will propose a dynamic routing algorithm that could randomize delivery paths for data transmission. [04 Oct 2009]
Workload Characterization of a Lightweight SSL Implementation Resistant to Side-Channel Attacks
White Paper The paper integrated a generic public-key crypto library into this SSL stack to support elliptic curve cryptography over arbitrary prime and binary fields. Ever-growing mobility and ubiquitous wireless Internet access... [04 Oct 2009]
Achieve Information Security by Preserving the Secrecy and Integrity of Keys
White Paper Cryptography forms the basis of information security infrastructure. Data encryption, network traffic encryption, PKI-based authentication and digital signatures all depend on the underlying confidentiality of secret... [04 Oct 2009]
Astron Clinica Protects Software With Sentinel Hardware Keys
White Paper Astron deployed SafeNet Sentinel Hardware Keys that contains both public key cryptography and 128-bit AES encryption in order to secure communications between the key and the protected application. Astron Clinica, based... [01 Oct 2009]
Why malware writers are turning to open source
News The advantages are that you have more people involved in developing it, so someone who is into cryptography could add a cryptographic plug-in or somebody who does video streaming could add remote streaming of the... [18 Sep 2009]
Exploiting Cryptography for Privacy-Enhanced Access Control: A Result of the PRIME Project
White Paper The paper conducts more and more of the daily interactions over electronic media. The EC-funded project PRIME (Privacy and Identity Management for Europe) envisions that individuals will be able to interact in this information society in... [16 Sep 2009]
Windows Authenticode Portable Executable Signature Format
White Paper Authenticode is based on Public-Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS) #7 signed data and X.509 certificates to bind an Authenticode-signed binary to the identity of a software publisher. Authenticode is a digital signature... [16 Sep 2009]
Want to keep eavesdroppers out? HP researchers think they have the answer
News The Veiled darknet uses RSA public key cryptography, but any cryptography will work . Two researchers for HP have created a browser-based darknet, an idea that could make it easier for businesses to keep... [27 Jul 2009]
Badge of honour for WWII Bletchley codebreakers
News Greenish said that government had taken 64 years to recognise the efforts at Bletchley because the work there had been so secret, and because the innovations in mathematics and cryptography from Bletchley Park until... [14 Jul 2009]
Towards Next-Generation Botnets
White Paper The main features of this bot are peer-to-peer communication, strong cryptography, a credit-point system to build bilateral trust amongst bots, and a proof-of-work scheme to protect against potential attacks. [29 Jun 2009]
Server-Gated Cryptography: The Illusion of Security
White Paper As security vendors compete for market share for SSL certificate sales, some attempt to gain a better foothold by claiming that expensive Server-Gated Cryptography (SGC) certificates are required for 128-bit security. [16 May 2009]
Quantum Computing and Cryptography: Their Impact on Cryptographic Practice
White Paper Quantum cryptography may find application in certain specific applications. However, the constraints upon its use do not make it a practical solution for many popular applications of cryptography at this... [16 May 2009]
Man-in-the-Middle Attacks: Helping to Eliminate the Threat Without Impacting the Business
White Paper Well known in the cryptography community, Man-In-The-Middle (MITM) attacks have long been recognized as a potential threat to Web-based transactions by security experts. But in the summer of 2006, and ongoing through... [16 May 2009]
