NIST's New Post-Quantum Cryptography Standards Announced

The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology this week unveiled three encryption algorithms designed to resist cyberattacks, which industry observers said are a positive step toward preventing cyberattacks that break current encryption methods. The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 203, 204, and 205 provide standards for general encryption and protecting digital signatures. They were derived from multiple submissions in NIST’s post-quantum cryptography standardization project. Quantum computers are rapidly increasing the ability for high-performance computing,…

Beyond encryption: The zero-knowledge revolution for personal data

The organizations underpinning our most crucial societal functions, from financial and educational institutions to healthcare companies, suffer regularly from data breaches. This jeopardizes not just privacy, but critical day-to-day operations as the average breach results in $4.45M in financial losses. While zero-knowledge architecture has already gained traction in the security sphere, now is the time for all industries to bolster the protection of user data as threats targeting industries like finance, retail and transportation multiply…

Rethinking network and security monitoring in the age of TLS 1.3

The adoption of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 creates a watershed moment for cybersecurity, revolutionizing encryption and data protection standards. TLS has been widely used to secure data end-to-end for many decades. Though this latest version significantly enhances the security of the TLS protocol, it also severely limits the decryption of those data streams for cybersecurity and network monitoring purposes. This results in our current forms of network and security monitoring used with previous…

New GoFetch Vulnerability in Apple's M Chips Allows Secret Keys Leak on Compromised Computers

The newly exposed GoFetch vulnerability affecting Apple’s M1, M2 and M3 chips lets an attacker exfiltrate secret keys from cryptographic applications on a targeted system. The exploit works by running a fraudulent process on the same CPU cluster as the targeted process on the targeted machine. No easy mitigation currently exists for this vulnerability, as it resides in the hardware. What is the GoFetch vulnerability? GoFetch is a cache side-channel vulnerability. This type of vulnerability…
