At the Crypto 2004 conference in Santa Barbara, Calif., this week, researchers announced several weaknesses in common hash functions. These results, while mathematically significant, aren’t cause for ...

Researchers have demonstrated new collision attacks against SHA-1 and MD5 implementations in TLS, IKE and SSH. If you’re hanging on to the theory that collision attacks against SHA-1 and MD5 aren’t ...

The old and insecure MD5 hashing function hasn’t been used to sign SSL/TLS server certificates in many years, but continues to be used in other parts of encrypted communications protocols, including ...

This is a high performance, small footprint HASH IP Core. It supports three HASH algorithms: MD5, SHA1, SHA256. A S/G DMA engine keeps the core runni ...

SHA-1 is one of the most prevalent forms of a secure hash algorithm used in the legal and security industry. Now that Professor Xiaoyun Wang and her associates in Tsinghua University and Shandong ...

The original author of the MD5 password hash algorithmhas publicly declared his software end-of-life and is "no longer considered safe" to use on commercial websites. This comes only a day after a ...

If you thought MD5 was banished from HTTPS encryption, you’d be wrong. It turns out the fatally weak cryptographic hash function, along with its only slightly stronger SHA1 cousin, are still widely ...
