Encryption is a term that many of us have come across, but what does it mean? To put it simply, encryption is the encoding of information. Various online services use it to keep your data private and ...

When quantum computers become powerful enough, they could theoretically crack the encryption algorithms that keep us safe. The race is on to find new ones. Tech Review Explains: Let our writers ...

The U.S. Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has selected four quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms for general encryption and digital signatures. NIST ...

What is SSL/TLS? SSL and TLS are protocols used on the transport layer, which is used to provide a secure connection between two nodes in a computer network. The first widely used protocol that was ...

Whenever we talk about end-to-end encrypted data, we're usually talking about messaging apps like iMessage, Signal, WhatsApp, and Google's RCS. But plenty of other data is encrypted to ensure ...

SSL and TLS are similar technologies because they share a codebase, though one is better than the other. In fact, one is dead and the other still reigns supreme to the time this day. By end of this ...
