It is a slightly modified version of SHA, the first hash function the federal government standardized for widespread use in 1993. As today’s increasingly powerful computers are able to attack the ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting a competition to choose a new secure hashing algorithm, and the contest will end Friday, by which time the agency hopes to ...

SHA-3 follows SHA-2 and is the product of a competition launched by the NIST in 2007 with the aim of developing a new cryptographic hash algorithm.

Two new IP cores for secure hash algorithm 3 (SHA-3) standard feature more versatile algorithm support. That encompasses support for all four variants of SHA-3 hashing algorithms—224, 256, 384, and ...

We shipped the SHA-3 ASIC to 8 different research groups all over the world for various performance and security evaluations. The project continues with evaluation of the vulnerabilities of the winner ...

NIST recommended IT professionals replace Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1) with more secure algorithms from the SHA-2 and SHA-3 groups to protect electronic information by Dec. 31, 2030.

Perhaps most importantly, Keccak operates completely unlike the SHA-2 algorithms, meaning that any work that has been done to compromise SHA-2 would not apply to SHA-3, Polk said.

SHA1 algorithm securing e-commerce and software could break by year’s end Researchers warn widely used algorithm should be retired sooner.
