Researchers say the SHA-1 hashing algorithm, still used to sign almost one in three SSL certificates, should be urgently retired Researchers have found a new way to attack the SHA-1 hashing ...

A cryptographic hash function is a mathematical algorithm that takes an input (or 'message') and returns a fixed-length string of characters, which is typically a sequence of alphanumeric symbols.

SHA-1 is a cryptographic hashing function designed to produce a fingerprint of a document, making it easy to tell if a document has been modified after the fingerprint was calculated.

SHA1 algorithm securing e-commerce and software could break by year’s end Researchers warn widely used algorithm should be retired sooner.

Chaotic Hash Functions and Cryptographic Algorithms Publication Trend The graph below shows the total number of publications each year in Chaotic Hash Functions and Cryptographic Algorithms.

Researchers have produced a collision in iOS’s built-in hash function, raising new concerns about Apple’s CSAM-scanning system — but Apple says the finding does not threaten the integrity of ...

Over a quarter of all the major content management systems (CMSs) use the old and outdated MD5 hashing scheme as the default for securing and storing user passwords.
