At the Crypto 2004 conference in Santa Barbara, Calif., this week, researchers announced several weaknesses in common hash functions. These results, while mathematically significant, aren’t cause for ...

Researchers have demonstrated new collision attacks against SHA-1 and MD5 implementations in TLS, IKE and SSH. If you’re hanging on to the theory that collision attacks against SHA-1 and MD5 aren’t ...

The original author of the MD5 password hash algorithmhas publicly declared his software end-of-life and is "no longer considered safe" to use on commercial websites. This comes only a day after a ...

Generating checksums—cryptographic hashes such as MD5 or SHA-256 functions for files is hardly anything new and one of the most efficient means to ascertain the integrity of a file, or to check if two ...

This is a high performance, small footprint HASH IP Core. It supports three HASH algorithms: MD5, SHA1, SHA256. A S/G DMA engine keeps the core runni ...

A widely used cryptographic algorithm used to secure sensitive websites, software, and corporate servers is weak enough that well-financed criminals could crack it in the next six years, a ...
