Algorithms for encrypting computer data come in two main varieties: symmetric and asymmetric. Each encryption type has inherent strengths and weaknesses. Symmetric algorithms convert plain-text ...

These cryptography algorithms are designed to protect ephemeral data transmitted between edge devices and sensors, not long-term secrets.

Quantum computers stand a good chance of changing the face computing, and that goes double for encryption. For encryption methods that rely on the fact that brute-forcing the key takes too long wit… ...

All three are symmetric encryption algorithms built on a SPN—short for substitution-permutation network structure.

Proponents believe hybrid encryption compensates for weaknesses in single post-quantum algorithms, but performance, complexity, and security concerns remain.

SOCKET is completely extensible and can be utilized with any symmetric encryption algorithm, including legacy options such as (AES).
