According to André Dragosch, PhD (@Andre_Dragosch), Bitcoin leverages the SHA-256 cryptographic hash function, which is fundamental to its network security and resistance against double spending or ...

As cyber threats evolve, so do the techniques that hackers use to infiltrate networks. One of the most insidious tactics is the pass-the-hash (PtH) attack, a form of credential theft that allows ...

Solana developers proposed a new hashing system that would change how the Solana network verifies and traces user accounts in a bid to fix scalability issues stemming from mass usage. In a Jan. 6 ...

Cryptographic hash functions play a critical role in secured password authentication. To be both secure and practical, these functions should exhibit a variety of mathematical guarantees, meet certain ...

A new method of scanning lungs is able to show the effects of treatment on lung function in real time and enable experts to see the functioning of transplanted lungs. This could enable medics to ...

University of Pittsburgh, School of Nursing, Pittsburgh, PA, United States Aim: We aim to compare different operational definitions of medication adherence as well as examine the within-patient ...

Economic and Technological Research Institute, Fujian Electric Power Co., LTD., State Grid, Fuzhou, China Existing feeder block division methods fail to consider the complementary characteristics and ...

Accurately approximating higher order derivatives is an inherently difficult problem. It is shown that a random variable shape parameter strategy can improve the accuracy of approximating higher order ...

Abstract: This paper will illustrate a new class of analysis off hash functions. The method will be demonstrated on the algorithm SHA-256. The idea behind the attack is to represent the algorithm as ...
