Researchers have found a new way to attack the SHA-1 hashing algorithm, still used to sign almost one in three SSL certificates that secure major websites, making it more urgent than ever to retire it ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology retired one of the first widely used cryptographic algorithms, citing vulnerabilities that make further use inadvisable, Thursday. NIST recommended ...

As a crypto network picks up more miners, hash rate increases. Hash rate will generally follow the price of a crypto. Hash rate also has some impact on global energy consumption. For a proof-of-work ...

Security researchers have achieved the first real-world collision attack against the SHA-1 hash function, producing two different PDF files with the same SHA-1 signature. This shows that the algorithm ...
