The PKI Guy talks quantum-safe security with Alexander Truskovsky
Our Senior Product Manager, Alexander Truskovsky, sat down with Mark B. Cooper of PKI Solutions Inc (A.K.A The PKI Guy) to discuss quantum-safe security, which was released August 1st, 2018.
Math Paths to Quantum-Safe Security: Isogeny-Based Cryptography
One of the most widely deployed public-key cryptographic algorithms is the elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman key exchange (ECDH). This, as well as most currently used protocols, is vulnerable to attacks using quantum computers. Isogeny-based cryptography offers the closest quantum-safe cryptographic primitives…
Why are Washington lawmakers suddenly so interested in quantum tech?
Blockchain. Artificial intelligence. Machine learning. These have all become buzzwords in Washington as lawmakers hear about how these promising technologies are expected to benefit the American public and private sectors alike. The United States’ Congress has sought to understand how these emerging…
A Short History of Public Key Cryptography
While the ideal of public-key cryptography is to have a “set and forget” group of algorithms that will guarantee security forever, increasingly we are realizing this ideal is not viable. There is not one cryptographic algorithm with a fixed set of parameters that will last indefinitely. As computers…
What's the Rush on Quantum-Safe Security? You Already May Be Too Late
The following is an excerpt from a contributed opinion piece on Journal of Cyber Policy by Scott Totzke, CEO & Co-founder of ISARA Corporation. The dawn of the quantum computing era promises to fundamentally change the way we approach big problems – from researching cures for cancer to alleviating…
