note 1: Small data velocity is a rough evaluation of algorithm's efficiency on small data. For more detailed analysis, please refer to next paragraph. note 2: some algorithms feature faster than RAM ...

Hashing transforms data into a fixed-length cryptographic fingerprint that ensures integrity and authenticity. Every block in a blockchain contains its own hash and the previous block’s hash, forming ...

Cryptography secures communication in banking, messaging, and blockchain. Good algorithms (AES, RSA, ECC, SHA-2/3, ChaCha20) are secure, efficient, and widely trusted. Bad algorithms (DES, MD5, SHA-1, ...

The quest to make biometric data private and secure has led to the development of biometric hashing. Hashing is a one-way process in which an algorithm called a cryptographic hash function takes an ...

While passwords remain the first line of defense for protecting user accounts against unauthorized access, the methods for creating strong passwords and protecting them are continually evolving. For ...

Hashing is a cryptographic process that allows converting any type of data into a unique fixed-size numeric value called “hash”. Hashes are generated using hashing algorithms that are both ...

Abstract: This study introduces an improved hash method aimed at enhancing data integrity and security in applications requiring a 256-bit hash code. The suggested hash algorithm is build based on the ...
