Preparing Critical Infrastructure for Post-Quantum Cryptography

CISA has released CISA Insights: Preparing Critical Infrastructure for Post-Quantum Cryptography, which outlines the actions that critical infrastructure stakeholders should take now to prepare for their future migration to the post-quantum cryptographic standard that the National Institute of...

NIST Announces First Four Quantum-Resistant Cryptographic Algorithms

The U.S. Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology NIST has chosen the first set of quantum-resistant encryption algorithms that are designed to "withstand the assault of a future quantum computer." The post-quantum cryptography PQC technologies include the...

The NSA Says that There are No Known Flaws in NIST’s Quantum-Resistant Algorithms

Rob Joyce, the director of cybersecurity at the NSA, said so in an interview: The NSA already has classified quantum-resistant algorithms of its own that it developed over many years, said Joyce. But it didnt enter any of its own in the contest. The agencys mathematicians, however, worked with NI...

Chinese Breakthrough in Quantum Computing a Warning for Security Teams

China’s top quantum-computer researchers have reported that they have achieved quantum supremacy, i.e., the ability to perform tasks a traditional supercomputer cannot. And while it’s a thrilling development, the inevitable rise of quantum computing means security teams are one step closer to...

More on NIST's Post-Quantum Cryptography

Back in July, NIST selected third-round algorithms for its post-quantum cryptography standard. Recently, Daniel Apon of NIST gave a talk detailing the selection criteria. Interesting stuff. NOTE: We're in the process of moving this blog to Wordpress. Comments will be disabled until the move it...

Update on NIST's Post-Quantum Cryptography Program

NIST has posted an update on their post-quantum cryptography program: After spending more than three years examining new approaches to encryption and data protection that could defeat an assault from a quantum computer, the National Institute of Standards and Technology NIST has winnowed the 69...

CVE-2019-16905

A Denial of service flaw was found in the way OpenSSH parsed certain specially crafted XMSS eXtended Merkle Signature Scheme private keys. Any OpenSSH functionality which parses private keys is vulnerable, for example: 1. If ‘sshd’ daemon is configured to use an XMSS host key that is malformed, i...

Google Testing Post-Quantum Cryptography in Chrome

Plenty has been speculated since the Snowden documents were made public about the NSA’s interest in building a quantum computer that could break current encryption securing communication worldwide. Quantum computing on a practical scale is a distant goal, but some do exist that leverage some...
