Collaborate Disseminate
Encryption algorithms can be intimidating to approach, what’s with all the math involved. However, once you start digging into them, you can break the math apart into smaller steps, and …read more Continue reading Lift the Veil On RSA With This RSA Calculator
We pity the civil servants involved in the negotiations between the European Union and the United Kingdom, because after tense meetings until almost the Eleventh Hour, they’ve had to cobble together the text of a post-Brexit trade agreement in next-to-no time. In the usual manner of such international agreements both …read more

A 19-year-old vulnerability has been re-discovered in the RSA implementation from at least 8 different vendors—including F5, Citrix, and Cisco—that can give man-in-the-middle attackers access to encrypted messages.
Dubbed ROBOT (Return of Bleichenbach… Continue reading ROBOT Attack: 19-Year-Old Bleichenbacher Attack On Encrypted Web Reintroduced
WPA2, the most widely used Wi-Fi security standard, has a number of flaws that could allow hackers to snoop on users’ internet traffic or, worse, to inject malware into it. The vulnerabilities are in the protocol itself, more precisely in the four-way handshake between clients and access points. It allows attackers to mount an evil..

Security boffins have discovered a critical vulnerability in a GnuPG cryptographic library that allowed the researchers to completely break RSA-1024 and successfully extract the secret RSA key to decrypt data.
Gnu Privacy Guard (GnuPG or GPG) is popul… Continue reading Researchers Crack 1024-bit RSA Encryption in GnuPG Crypto Library
New versions of GPG and its crypto library Libgcrypt were released on Wednesday addressing a vulnerability that could allow an attacker to predict Libgcrypt RNG output. Continue reading GPG Patches 18-Year-Old Libgcrypt RNG Bug
