Cryptographic hash functions combine message-passing capabilities needed in database security and cryptocurrency transactions.

A hash is a mathematical function that maps data of arbitrary size to a fixed-size value that is encrypted.

Researchers have produced a collision in iOS’s built-in hash function, raising new concerns about Apple’s CSAM-scanning system — but Apple says the finding does not threaten the integrity of ...

IOTA has just launched a new hash function, and is dishing out shares of a $220,000 bounty to anyone that can crack and improve its cryptography.

The cryptocurrency miner uses the hash function to solve the mathematical puzzles required to build one unit of currency. The speed at which the solution is found is the hash rate.

For more than six years, the SHA1 cryptographic hash function underpinning Internet security has been at death's door. Now it's officially dead, thanks to the submission of the first known ...
