Secure Quantum Communication: Simulation and Analysis of Quantum Key Distribution Protocols

Quantum computing poses significant threats to conventional cryptographic techniques such as RSA and AES, motivating the need for quantum secure communication methods. Quantum Key Distribution QKD offers information theoretic security based on fundamental quantum principles. This paper presents a...

Synchronized DNA Sources for Unconditionally Secure Cryptography

Secure communication is the cornerstone of modern infrastructures, yet achieving unconditional security -resistant to any computational attack- remains a fundamental challenge. The One-Time Pad OTP, proven by Shannon to offer perfect secrecy, requires a shared random key as long as the message,...

Possible New Result in Quantum Factorization

I'm skeptical about--and not qualified to review--this new result in factorization with a quantum computer, but if it's true it's a theoretical improvement in the speed of factoring large numbers with a quantum computer...

OpenSSL 3.5.0 < 3.5.6 Multiple Vulnerabilities

The version of OpenSSL installed on the remote host is prior to 3.5.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 3.5.6 advisory. - Issue summary: An OpenSSL TLS 1.3 server may fail to negotiate the expected preferred key exchange group when its key exchange group...

OpenSSL 3.6.0 < 3.6.2 Multiple Vulnerabilities

The version of OpenSSL installed on the remote host is prior to 3.6.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 3.6.2 advisory. - Issue summary: An OpenSSL TLS 1.3 server may fail to negotiate the expected preferred key exchange group when its key exchange group...
