RISC-V: How the Modular Open ISA Is Transforming Custom Chip Design for Edge and Embedded Devices

Open hardware instruction sets are reshaping how chips are designed and deployed, and RISC-V sits at the center of that shift. Built as a modular, open instruction set architecture (ISA), RISC-V removes licensing barriers and lets designers tailor processors to specific needs — a powerful proposition for products that range from tiny sensors to high-performance […]

Primary: Quantum‑Safe Cryptography: Practical Steps Organizations Must Take Now

Quantum-safe cryptography: what organizations should do now Quantum computers are moving from theory toward practical capability, and that shift is reshaping how organizations think about encryption. Public-key schemes that protect web traffic, emails, and digital signatures are vulnerable to sufficiently powerful quantum processors. Preparing today with quantum-safe cryptography reduces risk and avoids costly last-minute changes. […]

Edge computing is changing how companies design applications and handle data by moving processing closer to where data is created.

Edge computing is changing how companies design applications and handle data by moving processing closer to where data is created. That shift reduces latency, improves reliability, and can lower bandwidth costs — benefits that are particularly important for Internet of Things (IoT), real-time analytics, augmented reality, and industrial systems. What edge computing actually meansEdge computing […]

Passkeys Explained: A Practical Guide to Passwordless Authentication with WebAuthn & FIDO2

Passwords are a weak link for both consumers and businesses. Phishing, credential stuffing, and password reuse keep account takeovers common. Passwordless authentication, led by passkeys and FIDO2/WebAuthn standards, is changing how people sign in—offering stronger security and a simpler user experience. What are passkeys?Passkeys replace passwords with cryptographic key pairs. When a user registers, the […]

Passwordless Authentication: Improve Security and UX with Passkeys (WebAuthn & FIDO2)

Passwordless Authentication: Better Security and Simpler Login Passwordless authentication is reshaping how people access apps and services by replacing shared secrets with cryptographic credentials tied to devices or user biometrics. This approach addresses persistent security problems—weak passwords, credential reuse, and phishing—while improving user experience. How it worksAt the core of passwordless systems are public-key cryptography […]
