Outdated cryptographic protocols put vast amounts of network traffic at risk

Cryptography is largely taken for granted – rarely evaluated or checked – a practice that could have devastating consequences for businesses as attack surfaces continue to expand, the cost of a data breach rises year-over-year, and the age of quantum computing nears, according to Quantum Xchange. Examining more than 200 terabytes of network traffic – or the total sum of all packets, for all connections, between all pairs – up to 80% was found to … More →
