We are currently implementing an envelope encryption scheme in order to securely store PII data in our database. That means we will have a user- specific DEK (data encryption key), and a KEK, which will get derived from the user’s password… Continue reading Envelope Encryption: KEK management in Auto- Login case
Blockchain, known for its role in cybersecurity, fintech, and cryptocurrencies, raises the question: Is it secure? Absolutely! With… Continue reading Is the Blockchain Secure? Yes, and Here’s Why

I have a problem. I’m a message relay and i want to prioritize user privacy as much as possible. Unfortunately, there is one issue. I can’t design my system to implement E2EE (end-to-end encryption), because the original message is always … Continue reading Encryption Master Key (KMS) vs Distributed Multiple Encryption Keys (KMS)
In the last several days, headlines have been plastered all over the internet regarding Chinese researchers using D-Wave quantum computers to hack RSA, AES, and “military-grade encryption.” This is true and not true.Continue ReadingCategory: Quantum Co… Continue reading No, Chinese quantum computers haven’t hacked military-grade encryption
An anonymous reader shared this report from Forbes:
Recent headlines have proclaimed that Chinese scientists have hacked “military-grade encryption” using quantum computers, sparking concern and speculation about the future of cybersecurity. The clai… Continue reading Debunking Hype: China Hasn’t Broken Military Encryption with Quantum
I’m curious about Widevine, and I’ve done some search on it, and I’ve heard that it’s protected by repeated frame-by-frame encryption and compounding, so if the video only has one frame (or that frame is repeated), does it not work?(i.e. i… Continue reading If the video only has one frame, then Widevine won’t work?
A close look at the utilities, techniques, and infrastructure used by the hacktivist group Crypt Ghouls has revealed links to groups such as Twelve, BlackJack, etc. Continue reading Analysis of the Crypt Ghouls group: continuing the investigation into a series of attacks on Russia
