Peter Shor, a computer scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, explains why he devised an algorithm for a quantum computer that could unravel our online data encryption. Celeste ...

Given enough time and computer power genetic algorithms can solve many issues that took centuries to solve and find solutions to problems outside of current human comprehension.

15 genius algorithms that aren’t boringUsing an algorithm they devised, the research team can quickly measure how virulent worms are and halt their spread while keeping the false-positive rate ...

Published at the 2021 IEEE Computer Security Foundations Symposium, the paper states that the myriad security tools available typically examine specific pieces of code rather than an algorithm itself.

Peter Shor published one of the earliest algorithms for quantum computers in 1994. Running Shor's algorithm on a hypothetical quantum computer, one could rapidly factor enormous numbers—a seemingly ...

The findings, published in IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, present a way to protect sensitive videos from rare but extremely powerful computers.

The implications for email security are immense, which is why the cyber security community is already hard at work developing quantum-resistant cryptography.

Industry experts agree that the future of two widely used security algorithms is limited, but with no clear alternatives in sight, products that rely on them may have to remain "good enough" for ...

Identifying anomalies in the operations of computer systems that control critical safety and security functions calls for extensive expertise, and the actions required need to be tested, analysed and ...
