Quantum computers, which are anticipated to be soon able to crack current encryption methods, have led to plans for developing new, secure algorithms. However, there are concerns that the US National Security Agency (NSA) might undermine this process. A leading cryptography expert, Daniel Bernstein, from the University of Illinois Chicago, […]
As the digital realm expands, so does the frequency and sophistication of cyberattacks. Password breaches have become a concerning reality, prompting a reevaluation of password management strategies. Both companies and users must adapt to these challenges to safeguard their digital assets. Here’s a roadmap for the future of password management: […]
The debate between integrated OS-level password managers and third-party solutions has been reignited, especially after recent breaches in popular third-party password managers. Both approaches come with their own set of advantages and challenges. Let’s dissect the security aspects of each to provide a clearer perspective: Type Category Description Integrated OS-level […]
OpenSSL 1.1.1, launched in 2018 as a Long Term Support (LTS) version of the open-source secure communication library, has reached its end of life. This means users must transition to a newer version unless they are willing to pay for extended support. For those not prepared to shift to the […]
The change in OpenSSL’s licensing to the Apache License v2 (often referred to as ALv2) has several implications for businesses and developers. Here’s a breakdown: Permissive Licensing: The Apache License v2 is a permissive open-source license. This means that the software can be freely used, modified, and distributed, even in […]
