The future of encryption

 

With so much of our information now stored or processed in the cloud, how can we make sure it's safe from unauthorized access? The National Science Foundation is funding researchers looking for answers to cyber-security challenges and exploring the future of encryption. The goal is that, one day, we will be able to ensure the security of important information wherever it may be: on our computers, mobile devices, and even in the cloud. Credit: Amina Khan, NSF
