Learn how to implement the Reduced Row Echelon Form (RREF) algorithm from scratch in Python! Step-by-step, we’ll cover the ...

In an RL-based control system, the turbine (or wind farm) controller is realized as an agent that observes the state of the ...

Although RC4 encryption should already be a thing of the past, it is still used sporadically today. Microsoft has now announced that it will remove Rivest Cipher 4 from Kerberos. This is intended to ...

About time: Microsoft introduced support for the RC4 stream cipher in Windows 2000 as the default authentication algorithm for the Active Directory services. The system has been insecure for even ...

Microsoft is officially moving to shut the door on RC4 - a legacy cryptographic cipher that has quietly persisted inside Windows authentication environments for decades - and forcing organizations to ...

Microsoft is killing off an obsolete and vulnerable encryption cipher that Windows has supported by default for 26 years following more than a decade of devastating hacks that exploited it and ...

An artificial-intelligence algorithm that discovers its own way to learn achieves state-of-the-art performance, including on some tasks it had never encountered before. Joel Lehman is at Lila Sciences ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

Schuss, schuss … skkkrrrchhhh! Anyone who’s skied a steep groomer that suddenly turns hard and icy knows that sound and feeling. You are cruising along smoothly and the next thing you know, your skis ...

Cryptography secures communication in banking, messaging, and blockchain. Good algorithms (AES, RSA, ECC, SHA-2/3, ChaCha20) are secure, efficient, and widely trusted. Bad algorithms (DES, MD5, SHA-1, ...

The RC4 encryption algorithm is still an option in Kerberos, despite being a weak cipher with vulnerabilities that allow recovering plaintext information. It is worth noting that Microsoft pledged to ...
