NIST has opened a competition to develop a new cryptographic hash algorithm, a tool that converts a file, message or block of data to a short "fingerprint" for use in digital signatures, message ...

Chaotic hash functions represent a cutting‐edge convergence between nonlinear dynamics and cryptographic science. These functions employ chaotic maps—mathematical systems that exhibit extreme ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology today announced a public competition to pick a new cryptographic hash algorithm that would become the new federal information processing standard ...

Chapter 3 of the Cryptographic Handbook delves into how modern cryptographic algorithms are implemented.

A cryptographic hash function is a mathematical algorithm that takes an input (or 'message') and returns a fixed-length string of characters ...

NIST’s goal is that SHA-3 provide increased security and offer greater efficiency for the applications using cryptographic hash algorithms. FIPS standards are required for use in federal ...

We will look at cryptographic hashing, and discuss some optimizations and other tricks that can be used to speed up commonly used algorithms. Due to recent discoveries of weaknesses in the commonly ...

Cryptographer Bruce Schneier says the upcoming SHA-3 cryptographic hash algorithm is not much better than the current one ...
