As AI-accelerated cybercrime and quantum computing rapidly erode the protections of traditional public-key cryptography, Symmatrics introduces a fundamentally different approach: a non-mathematical, ...

Many discussions of “hybrid encryption” begin with some debate about just what this means. Hybrid encryption in general refers to the combined use of public-key (asymmetric) cryptography with ...

GnuPG, or GPG, is a free implementation of the OpenPGP standard. It allows you to encrypt and sign your data and communications. It features a versatile key management system and access modules for ...

Reports began surfacing in October that Chinese researchers used a quantum computer to crack military-grade AES 256-bit encryption. Those reports turned out to be wrong, but that did little to dampen ...

So I am wondering, is PGP/GPG still the best standard for general purpose pubic key cryptography, in 2025? * Pro: Standard that's been around a long time, so there is widespread tool/app support (e.g.

RSA certificates still vulnerable to 2019 flaw, reaearchers say. Update, March 20, 2025: This story, originally published March 17, has been updated with a statement from RSA regarding the encryption ...

Ransomware still encrypts files with a hybrid AES/RSA scheme, but the data theft and backup destruction that happen before ...

Cryptography is an obscure discipline. Unless you're in big tech, a university or a research organization, you're unlikely to meet its practitioners. Even then, you might have to search to find them.
