Mountain View, Calif.-based Verisign, a managed security service provider, said that it has immediately discontinued the flawed MD5 cryptographic function used for digital signatures, while offering a ...

The good news is that most CA’s now use SHA-1 as their hash algorithm, but there are still a few CA’s that use MD5. But what I thought was a funny tidbit about the hack is that the researchers ...

Microsoft has given customers six months to find MD5 installations and prepare for a February 2014 patch that will block the broken algorithm. The clock is running on Windows administrators to sweep ...

Okay I admit it, sometimes I’ve been guilty of using the MD5 hashing algorithm in my code simply because it’s easily available in Java, it’s convenient and familiar, and I implicitly trust it. (Jeez, ...

The old and insecure MD5 hashing function hasn’t been used to sign SSL/TLS server certificates in many years, but continues to be used in other parts of encrypted communications protocols, including ...

Starting in April, Oracle will treat JAR files signed with the MD5 hashing algorithm as if they were unsigned, which means modern releases of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) will block those JAR ...

Are you in any way interested in checking the MD5 hash numbers of files on Windows 11/10 computers? If that’s a yes, then you need the help from a decent enough MD5 Hash Checker. What we’re going to ...
