Commvault is adding features to protect data from quantum-based exploits, which is especially relevant in sectors such as finance that retain sensitive data for decades.

Quantum computers could break encryption, exposing sensitive data. Learn how post-quantum cryptography can secure your ...

Encryption stands as one of the most powerful tools in the network and cyber security arsenal, safeguarding data from breaches, cyber threats and unauthorized access.

LaV's creators claim it's the first practical algorithm that can replace current-day encryption as the industry inches closer to creating a large-scale quantum computer.

Symmetric-key encryption is what people usually think of as encryption. It allows data and messages to be scrambled using a “key” so they are indecipherable to anyone without the key.

Current encryption is difficult for standard computers to crack, but future quantum computers are expected to be able to break through those algorithms, which would put information across the globe at ...

Specifically, the researchers found that their algorithm performed statistically superior to other encryption methods in its ability to create more randomness in the encrypted data and reduce patterns ...

A quantum computer with a million qubits would be able to crack the vital RSA encryption algorithm, and while such machines don't yet exist, that estimate could still fall further ...

Just because you have antivirus software installed on your PC doesn't mean a zero-day Trojan can't steal your personal data. The best encryption software keeps you safe from malware (and the NSA).
