Schneier On the US Crypto Competition

Posted by kdawson on from the ante-up dept.

Bruce Schneier has a commentary in Wired titled An American Idol for Crypto Geeks on the US government's competition for a new cryptographic hash function to become the national standard, covered here recently. He talks about how much the competition, slated to wrap up by 2011, will advance the cryptographic state of the art. And how much fun he expects to have.

    I'm glad that Bruce has an opinion about this. Good lord, I don't know how I would make it through monday without hearing what Bruce thinks about something.

    NEXT!
