Stream ciphers are not meant to be military-grade encryption schemes (although they were used by the military as recently as the 1980s), but one of their possible weakness was heretofore ...

Scientists develop a chaos-based stream cipher that can withstand attacks from large-scale quantum computers. Fast algorithms on quantum computers could easily break many widely used cryptosystems ...

It’s been more than 25 years since Ron Rivest invented his RC4 stream cipher, and after all that time it’s still being used widely, which is something of an achievement in the crypto world ...

Others use the stream method, which encrypts one bit at a time. See mode of operation , cryptography , security protocol , stream cipher , block cipher and algorithm .

After announcing end-of-support slated for 2016 for RC4, Microsoft has finally disabled the decades-old stream cipher in its Edge browser as well as IE11, across Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10.

Normally, the stream cipher should be unique for each call. How the ReVoLTE attack works. However, a team of academics from the Ruhr University in Bochum, Germany, ...

The Enigma cipher machine found in the Baltic Sea is lying on a table in front of the archaeological office of Schleswig-Holstein. After its discovery, the machine was handed over to the office by ...
