The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) today announced the winner of its five-year competition to select a new cryptographic hash algorithm, one of the fundamental tools of modern ...

CYB-SHA3 implements Secure Hash Algorithm-3 (SHA-3) family of functions on binary data with the NIST FIPS 202 Standard. It supports cryptographic hash ...

KiviHash-SHA-512/384 is an IP core implementing the SHA-384, SHA-512 and SHA512/256 cryptographic algorithm, an one-way hash function compliant to NIS ...

Users of GnuPG, OpenSSL and Git could be in danger from an attack that’s practical for ordinary attackers to carry out. A proof-of-concept attack has been pioneered that “fully and practically” breaks ...

Understanding Bitcoin is a one-way hash function should make sense because a hash function cannot be reversed. Once you understand that, it is hard to go back to thinking otherwise. The secure hash ...

The SHA-1 algorithm, one of the first widely used methods of protecting electronic information, has reached the end of its useful life, according to security experts at the National Institute of ...

The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has announced the phasing out of the secure hash algorithm (SHA)-1 in the federal government. The agency said it will stop using SHA-1 in ...
