RSA keeps getting factored. The question is what each new result tells us about the security of the encryption we still use: will the common standard of ...
RSA signature attack exploits unpadded signing in hardware modules, highlighting cryptographic transition toward post-quantum ...
Stephen Weis factored RSA-896 with Claude AI on Sept 19, 2026, pushing the public factoring record to 896 bits just 16 days after the prior mark ...
In 2026, RSA-260 (862-bit) was factored using classical computers, marking an engineering milestone but no theoretical ...
The technique still takes 1,380 CPU core-years, but that's down from the estimated 500,000 to 1 million CPU core-years it ...
A UC San Diego-led team forged RSA signatures without extracting its key. But Bitcoin and Ethereum sign with a different ...
Eric Lu factored an 862-bit RSA key for $400K using GPUs, putting RSA-1024 cracking costs at $30M and accelerating post-quantum crypto timelines.
RSA-896, a 270-digit encryption benchmark, was factored on September 19, 2026, by Anthropic engineer Stephen Weis using Claude AI and 2,048 GPUs -- making it the second AI-assisted integer ...
A team of researchers from UC San Diego showed that a 1024-bit RSA signature can be forged by sending multiple queries to a ...
Error handling ran through much of this week’s news. Pasqal won French backing to lead a fault-tolerance programme, D-Wave ...
The newly discovered attack allows for RSA signature forgery without factoring the encryption key, a method previously ...
The technique is practical against 1,024-bit RSA keys, which are already deprecated. It also lowers the estimated security of ...
