A team of cryptography experts is confident they have the answer as to how the NSA and other intelligence agencies break individual encrypted connections. The great mystery since the NSA and other ...

Programmers Whitfield Diffie and Martin E. Hellman, who developed the first form of cryptography for the internet era, have been awarded this year’s Turing Award. Named after famed British ...

Anyone know where to look for good examples of code for this sort of thing. Stuck with it for an assignment, and trying to make the coding side bearable since there's no way I can make the uni ...

On Tuesday, the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) announced that Whitfield Diffie, a consulting scholar at Stanford’s Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC) and former Chief ...

Researchers have uncovered a flaw in the way that some servers handle the Diffie-Hellman key exchange, a bug that’s somewhat similar to the FREAK attack and threatens the security of many Web and mail ...

Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman, whose names have been linked since their seminal paper introduced the concepts of public key encryption and digital signatures some 40 years ago, have been named ...

Usually, when you hear about broken cryptography, it’s because of some sort of nonmathematical workaround to compromise supposedly encrypted traffic—like intercepting traffic during brief periods when ...

On Tuesday, the Association for Computing Machinery, the nation’s leading organization for computer science, awarded its annual top prize of $1 million to two men whose name will forever be ...

Twenty years before the Internet would create a need for it, a public-key cryptographic standard was discovered and patented by Whitfield Diffie, along with another student and a professor at Stanford ...

While many people see securing the internet as a means to stopping cybercrime, former vice president for information security and cryptography at the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and ...
