Abstract: This paper introduces an enhanced lightweight image encryption method, combining a stream cipher and the Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA). The primary focus is developing a robust and efficient ...

Hashing transforms data into a fixed-length cryptographic fingerprint that ensures integrity and authenticity. Every block in a blockchain contains its own hash and the previous block’s hash, forming ...

Cryptography secures communication in banking, messaging, and blockchain. Good algorithms (AES, RSA, ECC, SHA-2/3, ChaCha20) are secure, efficient, and widely trusted. Bad algorithms (DES, MD5, SHA-1, ...

Blake3 is not listed as secure hashing algorithm in NIST SP 800-140Cr2 and therefore not FIPS 140 compliant. It's not clear if the choice and properties of the hashing algorithm is security relevant.

Your browser does not support the audio element. What is so special about it? Another cryptographic algorithm with a fancy name added to your list of things to ...

The quest to make biometric data private and secure has led to the development of biometric hashing. Hashing is a one-way process in which an algorithm called a cryptographic hash function takes an ...

Secure storage manager is a standalone Java based cryptographic file management system built using Maven ,Swing ,SQLite for AES encryption and decryption with SHA checksums for file data integrity and ...

While passwords remain the first line of defense for protecting user accounts against unauthorized access, the methods for creating strong passwords and protecting them are continually evolving. For ...
