One of the technologies that will undoubtedly change Web3 is zero-knowledge (ZK) cryptography. ZK has long been considered a potential game-changer for ensuring the privacy, security and integrity of ...

Fabric Cryptography, a hardware startup by MIT and Stanford dropouts (and married couple) Michael Gao and Tina Ju, wants to make modern cryptographic techniques like zero-knowledge proof (which lets ...

Privacy is a core concern in crypto. Once you know a crypto wallet address corresponds to a certain individual, you can track all the transactions that individual has ...

Two types of technologies could change the privacy afforded in encrypted messages, and changes to this space could impact all of us. This article is from The Technocrat, MIT Technology Review's weekly ...

Anurag Agrawal is a Senior Tech Lead at Google LLC. With over 12 years of experience, he's an expert in Cybersecurity and Abuse prevention. As someone who's been following the intersection of ...

Privacy protocols and crypto mixers both protect blockchain privacy, but differ in design, risk, and long-term use cases.

Fabric Cryptography, a Silicon Valley hardware startup, has closed a $33 million Series A funding round co-led by Blockchain Capital and 1kx to build new computing chips focusing on data privacy. The ...

As we keep participating in more complex data processes, as people, we know that we have to maintain some sort of privacy… Alexandra Henzinger has some important ideas about how to do that. Her input ...

Open-source cryptography firm Zama has raised $73 million in Series A funding to develop applications based on fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), a technology that enables data to be processed ...

Homomorphic encryption is a transformative cryptographic method that permits computations to be executed directly on encrypted data without the need for decryption. This capability not only guarantees ...

A cypherpunk is an individual who advocates the use of strong cryptography to protect privacy and enable civil liberties. Cypherpunks believe that encryption technology can be used to undermine the ...
