The algorithm expands a single message by up to 8 bytes. DES is a block cipher that encrypts data in blocks of 64 bits. SAS Proprietary This provides basic encryption services on all platforms and ...

On March 17, 1975, the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) published its proposed Data Encryption Standard (DES) in the Federal Register. The algorithm used a 56-bit encryption key, which (it was ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology is proposing that the Data Encryption Standard, a popular encryption algorithm, lose its certification for use in software products sold to the ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is proposing that the Data Encryption Standard (DES), a popular encryption algorithm, lose its certification for use in software products ...

Karsten Nohl, the founder of Berlin's Security Research Labs, has announced an exploit for SIM cards using the outdated 56-bit DES algorithm for its signature verification. The security researcher ...

To allay the suspicions that the NSA had placed “back doors” in DES, the competition was to be open and public, and the encryption algorithm was available for use royalty-free worldwide.

When quantum computers become powerful enough, they could theoretically crack the encryption algorithms that keep us safe. The race is on to find new ones.

The algorithm expands a single message by up to 8 bytes. DES is a block cipher that encrypts data in blocks of 64 bits. SAS Proprietary This provides basic fixed encoding encryption services on all ...
