Recently, a new trend has emerged in the world of ransomware: intermittent encryption, the partial encryption of targeted files. Many ransomware groups, such as BlackCat and Play, have adopted this approach. However, intermittent encryption is flawed. In this blog post, I will introduce White Phoenix, a tool my team built that takes advantage of the fact that those files aren’t entirely encrypted and can, in the right circumstances, salvage some content from the unencrypted parts of the files.
Quantum computing is coming and it has the potential to be both exciting and terrifying… On today’s episode of Trust Issues, host David Puner speaks with cryptographer Dr. Erez Waisbard, CyberArk’s Technology and Research Lead, about quantum computing innovation and its cybersecurity implications – from data encryption to surveillance and privacy. Dr.
Keeper’s Enterprise Password Manager is the only solution that uses Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) in its encryption, making it the most secure password management solution available. ECC is a public-key cryptography method based on the mathematics of elliptic curves. First proposed in 1985, it recently rose to prominence with modern cryptography as it provides a higher level of security compared to traditional encryption methods, such as RSA.
Encryption technology is vital to securely sharing information over the internet. An estimated 1.145 trillion MB of data is created every day, and encryption prevents sensitive information from being intercepted, read or altered by the wrong recipients. Not sure what encryption is or how it works? Keep reading to learn more about data encryption, its purpose and benefits.
Cybersecurity is a top priority for businesses, governments, and individuals alike. With the rise of cybercrime in recent years, it’s more important than ever to ensure that sensitive data is kept safe and secure. That’s where encryption comes in. Encryption is the process of encoding data so that only authorized users can access it. There are two main types of encryption: symmetric and asymmetric encryption.
