An algorithm that transforms a given amount of data (the "message") into a fixed number of digits, known as the "hash," "digest" or "digital fingerprint." Hash functions are a fundamental component in ...

Bitcoin offers an irreversible digital property function that prior to its invention simply did not exist. Understanding Bitcoin is a one-way hash function should make sense because a hash function ...

Hash functions are a one-way mathematical problem. If a person has the resulting hash, it is impossible to convert it back to the original data. In this episode of “Bitcoin, Explained,” hosts Aaron ...

Chaotic hash functions represent a cutting‐edge convergence between nonlinear dynamics and cryptographic science. These functions employ chaotic maps—mathematical systems that exhibit extreme ...

IOTA Foundation, the company wanting to be the cryptocurrency for the Internet-of-Things (IoT), has just launched a new hash function, and it’s dishing out shares of a $220,000 (200,000 euro) bounty ...

You might not have realized it, but the next great battle of cryptography began this month. It's not a political battle over export laws or key escrow or NSA eavesdropping, but an academic battle over ...
