Does Key Size Really Matter in Cryptography?One of the most interesting and useful aspects of the YubiKey NEO and NEO-n is that they can act as a smart card and come pre-loaded with a bunch of interesting applications, such as an implementation of OpenPGP Card. Many end-users like this functionality, but some question the key lengths. It’s an expected cryptographic question […]

A Crash Course in CryptographyTo better understand asymmetric cryptography, you need knowledge of some basic concepts. For those that are not familiar with public-key cryptography, I will provide here a brief, stripped-down introduction to the topic. In asymmetric or public-key encryption there are two main players: the encryption algorithm itself (RSA, ECC, ElGamal, …) and a cryptographic key pair (there […]
