Despite RSA's gesture, several competitors who have paid royalties for use of the algorithm for up to 17 years, argue that the industry could have done with the patent relaxation earlier.

Like most of the concerns about quantum computers in this area, the RSA paper is about an attack that may or may not work, and requires a machine that might never be built (the most powerful ...

Technology Breaking encryption with a quantum computer just got 20 times easier A quantum computer with a million qubits would be able to crack the vital RSA encryption algorithm, and while such ...

The RSA algorithm has become an encryption standard for many e-commerce security applications. The patent for it was issued to MIT on Sept. 20, 1983, and licensed exclusively to RSA Security.

Supporting RSA SecurID In March, RSA Security announced the latest members of its community of vendors supporting RSA SecurID authentication - CellExchange, Nokia, Ultiverse and Wireless Knowledge.

The method, outlined in a scientific paper published in late December, could be used to break the RSA algorithm that underpins most online encryption using a quantum machine with only 372 qubits ...

RSA CONFERENCE 2022 – Even the most future-facing panels at this year's RSA Conference are grounded in the lessons of the past. At the post-quantum cryptography keynote "Wells Fargo PQC Program ...
