Cryptographic hash functions are crucial in ensuring the security and integrity of information across diverse industries. They protect sensitive financial transactions in banking, verify data ...

After nine years of research and competitions, the National Institute of Standards and Technology released the final version of its Secure Hash Algorithm-3 standard Wednesday. SHA-3 is a cryptographic ...

As the digital economy accelerates and data security becomes a global priority, VEST Labs has officially unveiled its breakthrough innovation — VEST Hash, a next-generation cryptographic hash ...

Fifteen-year-old Peter Schmidt-Nielsen spent only a month working on his submission, but he thinks he’s come up with something “unusual and new.” Never mind that he’s up against some of the most ...

SHA1, one of the Internet’s most crucial cryptographic algorithms, is so weak to a newly refined attack that it may be broken by real-world hackers in the next three months, an international team of ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) this week opened a competition to develop a new cryptographic hash algorithm, a tool that converts a file, message or block of data to a short ...

An algorithm that transforms a given amount of data (the "message") into a fixed number of digits, known as the "hash," "digest" or "digital fingerprint." Hash functions are a fundamental component in ...
