Differential privacy: Pros and cons of enterprise use cases
Hiding sensitive data in a sea of noise might have more value than encryption in some use cases. Here are the most likely differential privacy applications and their trade-offs.
8 video chat apps compared: Which is best for security?
Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Duo, Cisco Webex, FaceTime, Jitsi, Signal and WhatsApp. What does their encryption look like? What are the trade-offs?
What is cryptography? How algorithms keep information secret and safe
Cryptography is the science of keeping information secret and safe by transforming it into form that unintended recipients cannot understand. It makes secure data transmission over the internet possible.
Homomorphic encryption tools find their niche
Current homomorphic encryption offerings require fewer specialized skills and are proving themselves effective in some use cases.
4 hot areas for encryption innovation
Researchers are making progress on a variety of approaches to strengthen encryption techniques and algorithms. Here are some of the hottest areas in cryptographic research.
Confidential Computing: What is it and why do you need it?
Confidential Computing can significantly enhance enterprise security, but what is it, and what do you need to do about it?
Is everything you thought you'd done right for security about to be at risk?
It may still be early days for quantum computing, but there has been significant progress recently. But what does that mean for today’s 'unbreakable' encrypted data?
Homomorphic encryption: Deriving analytics and insights from encrypted data
Homomorphic encryption allows safe outsourcing of storage of computation on sensitive data to the cloud, but there are trade-offs with performance, protection and utility.
IBM, Intel, AMD take different routes to hardware-based encryption
So-called confidential computing approaches allow data to remain encrypted while in use. That's best done in hardware, and IBM, AMD and Intel are following different paths, each with its own trade-offs.
Mathematical Mesh alpha release promises better end-to-end encryption
Web pioneer proposes a new cryptographic system that relies on threshold key infrastructure to improve end-to-end encryption.
DNSSEC explained: Why you might want to implement it on your domain
The Domain Name System Security Extensions provide cryptographic authentication to prevent redirection to rogue websites, but owners of many domains have yet to adopt it.
Google Cloud steps up security and compliance for applications, government
New Google Cloud offerings Confidential VMs and Assured Workloads for Government provide in-process data encryption and the ability to restrict storage locations, respectively.
New Republican bill latest in long line to force encryption backdoors
Here we go again. Senate Republicans push a new bill to mandate "lawful access" to encrypted devices and data. It won't end until law enforcement has better cyber forensics capabilities.
14 IT certifications that will survive and thrive in the pandemic
These tech certifications not only have high value now, but employers will continue to value them as the coronavirus continues.
What is PKI? And how it secures just about everything online
Public key infrastructure (PKI) is a catch-all term for everything used to establish and manage public key encryption, one of the most common forms of internet encryption. It is baked into every web browser in use today to secure...
How close are we to breaking encryption with quantum computing?
Not as close as you might fear, but quantum encryption cracking is on its way. So, it's time to start getting ready for it.
Is the EARN-IT Act a backdoor attempt to get encryption backdoors?
New bipartisan US legislation to fight online child exploitation incentivizes companies to drop end-to-end encryption, critics say.
The race for quantum-proof cryptography
Lawmakers briefed on quantum computing’s threat to encryption and the urgent need for mathematical research.
