Code- and cipher-breaking have been in operation for centuries. However, cryptanalysis – the art of deciphering encoded messages – took on a new importance during WW2 as British boffins strived to ...

Think about the humble envelope. For centuries this paper enclosure has shielded important information from prying eyes that might otherwise steal a glance at an unprotected note. Also, by placing ...

Code-based cryptography employs error-correcting codes as the basis for secure public-key schemes, leveraging the intrinsic difficulty of decoding a random linear code. The foundational McEliece ...

Quantum computers are coming. Or, at least, that’s what current predictions say. These machines harness the power of quantum ...
