Security firm Mandiant has released a database that allows any administrative password protected by Microsoft’s NTLM.v1 hash ...

Hashing transforms data into a fixed-length cryptographic fingerprint that ensures integrity and authenticity. Every block in a blockchain contains its own hash and the previous block’s hash, forming ...

Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) is a family of hashing methods that tent to produce the same hash (or signature) for similar items. There exist different LSH functions, that each correspond to a ...

The quest to make biometric data private and secure has led to the development of biometric hashing. Hashing is a one-way process in which an algorithm called a cryptographic hash function takes an ...

In the realm of computer science, it’s hard to go too far without encountering hashing or hash functions. The concept appears throughout security, from encryption to password storage to crypto, and ...

Update 3/9/25: After receiving concerns about the use of the term 'backdoor' to refer to these undocumented commands, we have updated our title and story. Our original story can be found here. The ...

After looking at the recent GoLang update for curiosity, I noticed one standout item. GoLang now uses Swiss Tables for mapping. I'd not heard of this algorithm, so it took a bit of searching to come ...

Abstract: Health problems are not only related to the availability of medical facilities and medical personnel but also include the security of health data. In this regard, the development of ...

As we have seen in previous videos, it happens sometimes that two keys yield the same hash value for a given table size. This is called a “hash collision” or just “collision.” Why do hash collisions ...

Imagine starting each day with your favorite cup of coffee, but this time, with a revolutionary twist that not only wakes you up but also helps you burn fat and boost your metabolism. Introducing Java ...
