RSS cryptographyCryonics, Cryptography, and Maximum Likelihood Estimation
White Paper In cryptography, the person who wants to send a secret message transforms it. The damage done by the cryonic suspension (and the probably poor condition of the patient before the suspension even began) are quite sufficient to insure that nothing... [25 Feb 2004]
Securing Transmissions, Part 2: Cryptography Locks Down WAP and P2P Transmissions
White Paper This paper examines how to better lock down wireless applications, with a focus on cryptography. WAP gateways are commonly used to mediate between the general Internet and both wireless LANs (such as 802.11 networks) and wireless WANs (such as cell... [03 Jul 2008]
Cryptography and Digital Signing
White Paper This webcast discusses cryptography and digital signing technologies, which involve the protection of data and code. The Microsoft .NET Framework provides extensive support for cryptography and data signing. [03 Jul 2008]
MSDN Webcast: Cryptography API: Next Generation Overview (Level 200)
White Paper Cryptography API: Next Generation (CNG) is the new Microsoft cryptography infrastructure built into the Windows Vista operating system and Windows Server code name "Longhorn. Designed with extensibility and ease of use in mind, CNG is fully... [05 Oct 2007]
Cryptography Simplified in Microsoft .NET
White Paper Cryptography is the science of scrambling meaningful characters into non-meaningful characters so as not to be read by people that should not have access to the data. The science of cryptography has been around for many years, even long before... [25 Dec 2004]
Cryptography: Employ Strong Encryption in Your Apps With Our CryptoUtility Component
White Paper While there is no such thing as perfect security, it is possible to use cryptography in a secure manner in a real-world application. The .NET Framework provides excellent support for building such secure applications out of the box. [25 Dec 2004]
Cryptography in a Hole - Cryptographic Service Providers
White Paper "Plug-able cryptography" or "cryptography in a hole" is a concept that has gained considerable interest as it allows applications to be independent of particular cryptographic implementations. In particular, this paradigm enables an application to... [03 Jul 2008]
Cryptography is Not the Ultimate Solution
White Paper The history of cryptography goes back almost as far as the beginning of written history itself. Cryptography and the breaking of codes were critical factors in the naval, air and sea battles of World War II.Older cryptographic engines, like the... [25 Feb 2004]
Cryptography Policy and the Information Economy
White Paper This paper is a high-level technical overview of the impact of cryptography on the computing and communications industries, with emphasis on the implications of the Administration's recent cryptography policy initiatives. [09 Mar 2004]
Quantum cryptography: Your security holy grail?
News Quantum cryptography - using a private communication channel to lock down the exchange of sensitive data between two points - has to date created much more discussion than it has practical applications. [18 Apr 2005]
Architectural Extensions for Elliptic Curve Cryptography Over GF(2m)
White Paper This paper describes data path extensions for general-purpose microprocessors to accelerate the emerging public-key cryptosystem Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). ECC is computationally more efficient than the popular RSA cryptosystem and, thus... [02 Aug 2005]
Strategic Export Controls: The Impact on Cryptography
White Paper Cryptography, the art of secret writing, dates at least from classical times. This paper questions the value of existing export controls, and sets out the intolerable wider consequences for business, education and liberty of the proposed extension. [10 Apr 2008]
Application of Quantum Cryptography for Government and Military
White Paper The United States Government, led by agencies such as the Army Research Organization (ARO), The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), The Advanced Research and Development Activity (ARDA), The National Institute of Standards and... [01 Sep 2005]
Can Cryptography Prevent Computer Viruses?
White Paper The relationship between cryptography and virus prevention is anything but simple. Since the beginning of the computer virus problem, people have proposed solutions involving some form of cryptography; but cryptography plays only a minor role in... [25 Feb 2004]
Enterprise Cryptography for Enhanced Security
White Paper To help companies more easily implement high-performance cryptographic solutions, Sun has developed one of the industry's broadest lines of hardware-based cryptography products. By offering customers peace of mind without compromising performance... [25 Feb 2004]
