This is partly because such algorithms are devised against a knowledge of the methods of attack and cryptanalysis that either exist or are envisaged at the time the algorithm is written. And so, as novel methods of attack are uncovered, hardware processing speeds increase and cryptanalysis develops, so too do encryption algorithms fall prey to new vulnerabilities. There are many examples of outdated encryption algorithms, now considered dangerously obsolete....

Both of them sport a 12-megapixel lens on the rear and an 8-megapixel f/1.7 selfie camera on the front.

What’s different this year is the brighter display output, according to Samsung, and wider (but shorter) dimensions throughout. Ergonomics, or lack thereof, has been a longstanding issue with phone-to-tablet foldables, and Samsung is tackling the problem head-on with the Z Fold 4....
