The elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem (ECDLP) lies at the heart of modern public-key cryptography. It concerns the challenge of determining an unknown scalar multiplier given two points on an ...

In a world where everything is connected to everything else by the internet, the need to keep secrets has never been so strong. Traditionally, the need for strong encryption was limited. Governments ...

Researcher breaks ECC key using quantum hardware, raising concerns about Bitcoin security and urging faster shift to post-quantum protection systems.

The very prospect of the quantum apocalypse has driven various stakeholders to consider what that could be like and how to ...

Record quantum break: Giancarlo Lelli cracked a 15-bit ECC key on public quantum hardware, a 512x leap over the 2025 record. Crypto assets at risk: Around 6.9M Bitcoins and $2.5T in ECC-protected ...

FIPS 203 for ML-KEM (also known as CRYSTALS-Kyber) FIPS 204 for ML-DSA (also known as CRYSTALS-Dilithium) FIPS 205 for SLH-DSA (also known as Sphincs+) The publication of these draft standards is an ...

Researcher breaks 15-bit ECC key on publicly accessible quantum hardware in a 512x jump from the previous public demonstration. "The resource requirements for this type of attack keep dropping, and ...

Logarithms and square root are non-elementary operations frequently used in digital signal processing. In this work, implementation and design of an IP-Core to compute square root and multibase ...
