Google just managed to broke SHA-1 Encryption.
Google managed to alter a PDF without changing its SHA-1 hash value.
This jot down of collision might force people into believing that the modified document was the original one.
Let me tell you about SHA-1 encryption.
SHA stands for Secure Hash Algorithm.
Google managed to alter a PDF without changing its SHA-1 hash value.
This key in of collision might force people into believing that the modified document was the original one.
The entire effort was just to show tech community that SHA-1 encryption is now no more secure.
Although Google always had depreciated SHA-1 for many years, especially when it comes to signing TLS certificates.
Even, Google Chrome has been slowly phasing out the use of SHA-1 since 2014.
Well, now you all might be thinking how Google demonstrated the first ever SHA-1 Hash collision?
Let me tell you Google had computed the collision which is one of the largest computations ever completed.
you’ve got the option to read theresearch paper.
So, what do you think about this?
