Anthropic said its Mythos model—which currently remains available only to a select group of trusted users—was able to advance attacks against two cryptosystems. The first system is HAWK, a digital ...

Claude Mythos found mathematical weaknesses in HAWK (halving key strength) and reduced-round AES (200-800x faster attack). Both discovered mostly autonomously. No production systems affected. Each ...

Reports began surfacing in October that Chinese researchers used a quantum computer to crack military-grade AES 256-bit encryption. Those reports turned out to be wrong, but that did little to dampen ...

A new phase in PQC is underway, with the field of candidate digital signature algorithms narrowing as AI systems begin to ...

There’s little doubt that some of the most important pillars of modern cryptography will tumble spectacularly once quantum computing, now in its infancy, matures sufficiently. Some experts say that ...

Modern internet security relies heavily on mathematical problems that ordinary computers cannot solve within a useful time. A ...

Quantum computing will reshape encryption, but not overnight, and a disciplined, phased approach lets organizations modernize cryptographic foundations without disruption while strengthening security ...
