Quantum cryptography keys ride the lightning on existing fiber lines - 1 views

  •  
    Quantum computing has teased us with its potential for some time, but we won't be seeing qubits in our laptops anytime soon. However, science has also sought to leverage quantum physics in cryptography, and a recent breakthrough will allow for quantum encryption over fiber optic cables already in use.

BBC News - Who is winning the 'crypto-war'? - 0 views

  •  
    In the war over encryption between the NSA and privacy activists, at first it seemed as though the activists had won - but now it's not so clear.
  •  
    This was shared with the group! Did you do anything different this time? Your comment appeared twice, but that's fine.
  •  
    I didn't do anything different! It must have appeared twice because I posted it twice.

These Harvard And MIT Kids Say They've Made NSA-Proof Email - 1 views

  •  
    These people were prompted to create a easy, secure email service. They incorporated in Switzerland as it has much more stringent privacy laws than we have in America.
  •  
    Great find! At some point this semester, we're all going to learn how to use encrypted email. We might try out a few different systems, including ProtonMail, and compare them.

Military encryption's going open -- Defense Systems - 2 views

  •  
    This makes me wonder how ethical it is for the NSA to be so heavily involved in cryptography internationally. Are they building a backdoor into these crytographic systems? If so, how ethical could that be?

Visual Cryptography - 0 views

  •  
    What is Visual Cryptography Visual Cryptography is a special encryption technique to hide information in images in such a way that it can be decrypted by the human vision if the correct key image is used. The technique was proposed by Naor and Shamir in 1994. Visual Cryptography uses two transparent images.

Advanced Military Cryptography - 3 views

  •  
    A pre-WWII NSA document on advanced military cryptography which was declassified in 2014. This leads to the question of what impact disclosing these military secrets has on encryption and decryption of messages in future wars, and also why were these documents released in the first place.
