Today, [Henry Schmale] writes to us about his small contribution to making cryptography easier to understand – lifting the veil on the RSA asymmetric encryption technique through an RSA calculator.

In the case of the latter, researchers claimed in 2024 to have used a quantum computer to break a form of encryption known as RSA. Data encryption is widely used to protect sensitive data sent ...

While encryption is a vital tool, its implementation is often riddled with challenges, especially in large, globally ...
