Post-quantum cryptography is rapidly evolving to counter threats posed by quantum computing, and elliptic curves combined with isogeny methodologies offer a promising avenue. This approach leverages ...

In August, a pair of mathematicians discovered an exotic, record-breaking curve. In doing so, they tapped into a major open question about one of the oldest and most fundamental kinds of equations in ...

The mathematicians who toiled on the famous enigma also devised powerful forms of end-to-end encryption. By William J. Broad Defenses against digital snoopers keep getting stronger. Encryption is what ...
