JUST IN: Anthropic’s Claude solves the NSA’s 26 year cryptography mystery in under 30 minutes.

Claude found the NSA’s “random” seeds for cryptography curves like P-256 were generated from simple 1997 and 1998 timestamps.

Nobody had explained them since NIST published the curves in 2000.

The discovery claims a $36,864 bounty, which will be donated to the Internet Security Research Group.

Anthropic says it is not a weakness in the curves, and it makes backdoor fears “much less plausible.”
