The announcement follows a six-year effort to devise and then vet encryption methods to significantly increase the security of digital information, the agency said. The Department of Commerce’s ...

The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has debuted three encryption algorithms that it claims will help safeguard critical data from cyber attacks originating from quantum ...

Researchers have shrunk state-of-the-art computer vision models to run on low-power devices. Growing pains: Visual recognition is deep learning’s strongest skill. Computer vision algorithms are ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology has officially released three new encryption standards that are designed to fortify cryptographic protections against future cyberattacks by quantum ...

A team of computer scientists has come up with a dramatically faster algorithm for one of the oldest problems in computer science: maximum flow. The problem asks how much material can flow through a ...

In 1994, a mathematician figured out how to make a quantum computer do something that no ordinary classical computer could. The work revealed that, in principle, a machine based on the rules of ...

Machine learning algorithms serve us the news we read, the ads we see, and in some cases even drive our cars. But there’s an insidious layer to these algorithms: They rely on data collected by and ...
