Podcasts about Encryption

In this episode, Craig Jeffery and Brian Weeks explore homomorphic encryption, an emerging encryption method that allows data to be processed while still encrypted. They discuss how it works, why it matters, and potential future applications in finance, benchmarking, and fraud detection. When will it become relevant to treasury? Listen in for a forward-looking perspective.   For a deeper technical dive, check out these videos: https://youtu.be/SEBdYXxijSo https://youtu.be/lNw6d05RW6E

IonQ is poised to redefine the quantum computing landscape, projecting a staggering 80,000 logical qubits by 2030—potentially unlocking the power to crack encryption. NIST has us on a timeline to upgrade to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) by 2035, so this 5-year gap may spell doom for cybersecurity. Of course, these machines will also revolutionize industries from finance to drug discovery to AI. How is IonQ boosting their roadmap by orders of magnitude? Learn about their cutting-edge acquisitions and bold vision for scalable, error-corrected systems in this wide-ranging chat between host Konstantinos Karagiannis and IonQ SVP Dean Kassmann.For more information on IonQ, visit https://ionq.com/.Visit Protiviti at www.protiviti.com/US-en/technology-consulting/quantum-computing-services  to learn more about how Protiviti is helping organizations get post-quantum ready.Follow host Konstantinos Karagiannis on all socials: @KonstantHacker and follow Protiviti on LinkedIn and Twitter: @Protiviti.  Questions and comments are welcome!  Theme song by David Schwartz, copyright 2021.  The views expressed by the participants of this program are their own and do not represent the views of, nor are they endorsed by, Protiviti Inc., The Post-Quantum World, or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, shareholders, or subsidiaries.  None of the content should be considered investment advice, as an offer or solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, or as an endorsement of any company, security, fund, or other securities or non-securities offering.

At Black Hat USA 2025, Jennifer Granick—Surveillance and Cybersecurity Counsel at the American Civil Liberties Union—takes the keynote stage to make a bold case: we are long overdue for a new threat model, one that sees government surveillance not as a background risk, but as a primary threat to constitutional privacy.Granick draws from decades of experience defending hackers, fighting surveillance overreach, and engaging with the security community since DEFCON 3. She challenges the audience to reconsider outdated assumptions about how the Fourth Amendment is interpreted and applied. While technology has made it easier than ever for governments to collect data, the legal system hasn't kept pace—and in many cases, fails to recognize the sheer scope and sensitivity of personal information exposed through modern services.Her talk doesn't just raise alarm; it calls for action. Granick suggests that while legal reform is sluggish—stymied by a lack of political will and lobbying power—there's an urgent opportunity for the technical community to step up. From encryption to data minimization and anonymization, technologists have the tools to protect civil liberties even when the law falls short.The session promises to be a wake-up call for engineers, designers, policymakers, and privacy advocates. Granick wants attendees to leave not only more informed, but motivated to build systems that limit the unnecessary collection, retention, and exposure of personal data.Her keynote also surfaces a critical cultural shift: from the “Spot the Fed” days of DEFCON to a more nuanced understanding of government roles—welcoming collaboration where it serves the public good, but not at the expense of unchecked surveillance.This conversation reframes privacy as a design problem as much as a legal one—and one that requires collective effort to address. If the law can't fix it, the question becomes: will the technology community rise to the challenge?___________Guest:Jennifer Granick, Surveillance and Cybersecurity Counsel at American Civil Liberties Union | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifergranick/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.com___________Episode SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974BlackCloak: https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebAkamai: https://itspm.ag/akamailbwcDropzoneAI: https://itspm.ag/dropzoneai-641Stellar Cyber: https://itspm.ag/stellar-9dj3___________ResourcesKeynote: Threat Modeling and Constitutional Law: https://www.blackhat.com/us-25/briefings/schedule/index.html#keynote-threat-modeling-and-constitutional-law-48276Learn more and catch more stories from our Black Hat USA 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/bhusa25ITSPmagazine Webinar: What's Heating Up Before Black Hat 2025: Place Your Bet on the Top Trends Set to Shake Up this Year's Hacker Conference — An ITSPmagazine Thought Leadership Webinar | https://www.crowdcast.io/c/whats-heating-up-before-black-hat-2025-place-your-bet-on-the-top-trends-set-to-shake-up-this-years-hacker-conferenceCatch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

In this episode of From the Crows' Nest, host Ken Miller delves into the intersection of privacy and national security with Susan Landau, the Director of the Cybersecurity Center at Tufts University.Landau testified before Congress last month calling for improved encryption as a matter of national security. She tells host Ken Miller that the modern debate over encryption and cybersecurity dates back to a cyber espionage operation run by Chinese hackers called “Salt Typhoon” that breached various parties and critical U.S. infrastructure, including wiretapping members of both the Trump and Harris presidential campaigns. Their ability to breach texts and voice messages and access databases highlighted inefficiencies in America's cybersecurity infrastructure – and the tension between protecting American citizens from cyberattacks while posing additional challenges to law enforcement agencies worldwide.To learn more about today's topics or to stay updated on EMSO and EW developments, visit our homepage.We also invite you to share your thoughts, questions, or suggestions for future episodes by emailing host Ken Miller at host@fromthecrowsnest.org.

Samsung, which sells Android smartphones, also indirectly described the issue in a small area at the bottom of a press release last month. Samsung said about RCS, “Encryption only available for Android-to-Android communication.”出售Android智能手机的三星也间接地描述了上个月新闻稿底部的小区域中的问题。 三星谈到RCS时说：“加密仅用于Android到Android通信。”To avoid getting caught out when exchanging texts, experts recommend using encrypted messaging apps.为了避免在交换文本时被抓住，专家建议使用加密的消息传递应用程序。Privacy supporters are big fans of Signal, which uses end-to-end encryption on all messages and voice calls. Signal is an app that is run by an independent nonprofit group based in Mountainview, California. It promises never to sell customer data. The group has also made its source code publicly available so that it can be examined by anyone “for security and correctness.”隐私支持者是信号的忠实拥护者，它在所有消息和语音呼叫上使用端到端加密。 Signal是一个由位于加利福尼亚州MountainView的独立非营利组织运行的应用程序。 它承诺永远不会出售客户数据。 该小组还公开提供了其源代码，以便任何人“为了安全性和正确性”对其进行检查。Signal's encryption method is so respected that it has been included into competitor WhatsApp.信号的加密方法非常受尊重，以至于已将其包括在竞争对手WhatsApp中。End-to-end encryption is also the normal mode for Facebook Messenger, which like WhatsApp is owned by Meta Platforms.端到端加密也是Facebook Messenger的正常模式，就像WhatsApp一样，它归META平台拥有。Telegram is an app that can be used for one-on-one discussions, group chats and broadcast “channels.” But Telegram does not use end-to-end encryption normally. Users have to turn on end-to-end encryption. And Telegram's end-to-end encryption does not work with group chats.电报是一个应用程序，可用于一对一的讨论，小组聊天和广播“频道”。 但是电报不正常使用端到端加密。 用户必须打开端到端加密。 Telegram的端到端加密与小组聊天不起作用。Cybersecurity experts have warned people against using Telegram for private communications.网络安全专家警告人们不要将电报用于私人通信。Instead of using your phone to make calls through a wireless cellular network, you can make voice calls with Signal and WhatsApp. Both apps encrypt calls with the same technology that they use to encrypt messages.您无需使用手机通过无线蜂窝网络拨打呼叫，而是用信号和WhatsApp进行语音呼叫。 这两个应用程序都使用与它们用于加密消息的技术相同的技术加密调用。There are other choices. If you have an iPhone, you can use Facetime for calls, while Android owners can use the Google Fi service. Both are end-to-end encrypted.还有其他选择。 如果您有iPhone，则可以将FaceTime用于呼叫，而Android所有者可以使用Google FI服务。 两者都是端到端加密的。However, with all these choices, the person on the other end will also have to have the app.但是，有了所有这些选择，另一端的人也必须拥有该应用程序。WhatsApp and Signal users can choose the privacy setting they want in the settings. Such choices include hiding an IP address during calls to prevent your general location from being guessed.WhatsApp和信号用户可以在设置中选择所需的隐私设置。 这样的选择包括在通话过程中隐藏一个IP地址，以防止您的一般位置被猜测。

There are several famous examples of mysterious medieval writing, including the so-far unbreakable Voynich Manuscript. So, what secrets were medieval people trying to hide? And why? This week, Danièle speaks with Garry Shaw about who was encrypting their manuscripts, the codes they used, and the centuries of attempts to crack the Voynich Manuscript.You can support this podcast on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/medievalists

When NIST released the first post-quantum cryptography standards in August 2024, it set off a domino effect that will hopefully result in protecting the world from the quantum computing threat. Now that we're beginning to migrate and trust our data to lattice-based cryptography, it's a good time to examine how ML-KEM works and get some hints about how to implement it well. And who better to ask than one of the coauthors of the PQC standard?

William Lyne of the UK's National Crime Agency joins us live at Infosecurity Europe to talk ransomware, AI threats, and the future of cybercrime disruption.When the UK's top cyber intelligence strategist sits down with you in London, you listen — and you hit record.At Infosecurity Europe 2025, the ITSPmagazine podcast team — Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin — sat down with William Lyne, Deputy Director and Head of Cyber Intelligence at the UK's National Crime Agency (NCA). This is the guy who not only leads cyber strategy for the NCA, but has also represented the UK at the FBI in the U.S. and now oversees national-level ransomware disruption efforts. It's not just a conversation — it's a rare front-row seat into how one of the world's most serious crime-fighting agencies is tackling ransomware 3.0.The message? Ransomware isn't just a cyber issue. It's a societal one. And it's evolving faster than we're prepared for — unless we change the game.“It went from niche to national threat fast,” Lyne explains. “The tools were always there. It just took a few threat actors to stitch them together.”From banking malware to fully operational cybercrime-as-a-service ecosystems, Lyne walks us through how the underground economy has industrialized. Ransomware isn't just about tech — it's about access, scale, and business models. And most importantly, it's no longer limited to elite coders or closed-door Russian-speaking forums. The barrier to entry is gone, and the dark web is wide open for business.Sean brings up the obvious: “Why does this still feel like we're always reacting?”Lyne responds: “We've shifted. We're going after the ecosystem — the people, the infrastructure, the business model — not just the payload.” That includes disrupting ransomware-as-a-service, targeting marketplaces, and yes, investing in preemptive intelligence.Marco flips the script by comparing today's cyber landscape to something deeply human. “Extortion is nothing new — we've just digitalized it. This is human behavior, scaled by tech.”From there, the conversation takes a future-facing turn. Deepfakes, AI-powered phishing, the commoditization of generative tools — Lyne confirms it's all on their radar. But he's quick to note that cybercriminals aren't bleeding-edge innovators. “They adopt when the ROI is right. But AI-as-a-service? That's coming. And it will reshape how efficient — and damaging — these threats become.”And then the real insight lands:“You can't wait to be a victim to talk to law enforcement. We may already have access to the infrastructure. The earlier we hear from you, the better we can act — and fast.”That kind of operational openness isn't something you heard from law enforcement five years ago. It signals a cultural shift — one where collaboration is not optional, it's essential.William also highlights the NCA's partnerships with private sector firms, academia, and international agencies, including the Kronos operation targeting LockBit infrastructure. These kinds of collaborations prove that when information moves, so does impact.Why does this matter?Because while most cybersecurity media gets stuck in product buzzwords and vendor hype, this is the real stuff — how ransomware groups behave, how law enforcement thinks, and how society can respond. It's not theory. It's strategy, lived on the front lines. 

AI models have a defined memory ceiling, which is reshaping the ongoing debates surrounding copyright and data privacy. Recent research from Meta, Google DeepMind, Cornell, and NVIDIA reveals that large language models have a fixed memorization capacity of approximately 8.6 bits per parameter. This finding clarifies the distinction between memorized data and generalized knowledge, indicating that larger datasets do not necessarily lead to increased memorization of specific data points. This understanding is crucial as it informs the operational mechanisms of AI models and addresses concerns related to copyright infringement.Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google, has introduced the term "artificial jagged intelligence" to describe the current phase of AI development, highlighting the non-linear progress and the challenges faced by researchers despite significant advancements. Pichai's perspective reflects the mixed performance of AI models, which can exhibit extraordinary capabilities alongside notable errors. This sentiment is echoed by deep learning researcher Andrej Karpathy, emphasizing the unpredictability of AI performance and the need for a more nuanced understanding of its capabilities.The rise of AI retrieval bots is transforming how users access information online, with a significant increase in traffic from these bots. Companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are deploying these bots to summarize content in real-time, moving away from traditional search methods that provide links to multiple sources. This shift poses challenges for content publishers, as the growth of retrieval bots indicates a changing economic landscape where content is increasingly consumed by AI first, with human users following. Publishers may need to rethink their engagement strategies to adapt to this new reality.In the broader context of technology and cybersecurity, WhatsApp's intervention in a legal case concerning encryption and privacy rights highlights the growing role of platforms in surveillance debates. Additionally, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency faces leadership challenges amid a talent exodus, raising concerns about its operational effectiveness. As the IT services industry evolves, the integration of AI into various sectors, including hiring and cybersecurity, underscores the importance of execution, interoperability, and trust in automation. The future of technology will depend on how well businesses can navigate these changes and support their clients in making informed decisions.  Four things to know today  00:00 AI's Jagged Reality: Study Reveals Limits to Model Memory as Bots Redefine the Web Economy05:35 Cybersecurity Crossroads: WhatsApp Joins Apple in Legal Fight as U.S. Agency Leadership Crumbles08:29 AI Matures Into Infrastructure Layer as IT Vendors Shift Focus to Outcomes and Execution11:51 Legal Tech, GenAI, and Fast Food Bots All Show One Thing: Hype Doesn't Equal Success  This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

What if the world's most trusted cryptographic systems could be broken in just minutes instead of centuries? In this thought-provoking episode of the Brilliance Security Magazine Podcast, David Close, Chief Solutions Architect at Futurex, joins host Steven Bowcut to discuss the very real—and rapidly accelerating—threat that quantum computing poses to modern encryption. With quantum advancements progressing faster than many expected, Close explains why organizations need to act now to safeguard long-term data, and how hybrid and agile cryptographic systems are the key to staying ahead.SummaryDavid Close opens the conversation by tracing his own journey from embedded firmware engineering to his current role leading cryptographic innovation at Futurex. He shares how his work with Hardware Security Modules (HSMs)—specialized devices that securely manage encryption keys—laid the groundwork for Futurex's leadership in enterprise-grade encryption.The core of the episode centers on the quantum computing threat to current encryption standards like RSA and elliptic curve cryptography. David breaks down the technical implications in accessible terms: quantum computers can solve problems exponentially faster than classical computers, meaning encryption methods that would take millennia to break with today's machines might be cracked in minutes by quantum processors.A key highlight is the concept of “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later”—a tactic where attackers steal encrypted data today, intending to decrypt it once quantum technology matures. David emphasizes that this threat is not futuristic; it's already underway, with critical long-life data like medical records, financial information, and government secrets at risk.David outlines how Futurex and other leading organizations are proactively adapting. For example, Google and Cloudflare have already implemented hybrid cryptography using both classical and quantum-safe algorithms. Futurex is doing the same across its suite of HSMs and key management solutions, supporting new standards ratified by NIST (including Kyber and Dilithium) and enabling “crypto agility”—the ability to quickly adopt new encryption standards without overhauling infrastructure.He also shares how Futurex is helping clients through cryptographic discovery, which allows organizations to identify where and how cryptography is being used across their environments. This step is essential for prioritizing risk areas and laying a foundation for a secure, phased migration to post-quantum cryptography.Finally, David stresses that while the quantum threat is real and imminent, organizations shouldn't panic—but they must act now. The transition to post-quantum cryptography is already underway, and those who prepare today will be far more secure and resilient tomorrow.
