Strong Data Foundations Give AI Leaders an Edge in Quantum SecurityCompanies leading in AI security are also better prepared for quantum threats. New Thales research shows that data visibility, governance, encryption and crypto agility are helping CIOs build stronger foundations for both AI adoption and post-quantum readiness.

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a new botnet loader called Aeternum C2 that uses a blockchain-based command-and-control (C2) infrastructure to make it resilient to takedown efforts

With an off-the-shelf D-Wave machine Chinese researchers claim they have found a way to use D-Wave's quantum annealing systems to develop a promising attack on classical encryption.…

You take the green pill, and you'll spend six hours in a 'don't roll your own crypto' debate Four security researchers have identified five cryptographic vulnerabilities in code libraries that can be exploited to undermine the Matrix federated communication protocol and its client software. This includes impersonating users and sending messages as them.…

NIST's nifty new algorithm looks like it's in trouble One of the four encryption algorithms the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recommended as likely to resist decryption by quantum computers has has holes kicked in it by researchers using a single core of an Intel Xeon CPU, released in 2013.…

With the world potentially less than a decade away from breaking current encryption around critical data, researchers weigh in on planning for the post-quantum world.

A vulnerability in a Microsoft crypto library gives attackers a way to figure out what data is being encrypted in lockpicker-like fashion.

Researchers have detailed what they call the "first successful attempt" at decrypting data infected with Hive ransomware without relying on the private key used to lock access to the content
