Another day, another cracked encryption standard. This time, researchers at the University of Michigan have devised a way to undermine the ubiquitous RSA encryption technique used in everything from digital communications to copy protection. Although the technique, which involves varying the voltage to the circuitry in which part of the encryption key is contained, [...]
Remember the Japanese researchers that came up with a technique to crack WPA pre-shared keys (PSK) in just a few minutes, thus in theory making most of the world’s WiFi networks with TKIP encryption instantly insecure? If that story’s academic nature didn’t make you lose sleep over your own WiFi network insecurities, maybe this one [...]
