The clock is ticking on Q-Day, the looming yet unknown date when quantum computing will have the capacity to quickly and easily break the encryption keys that keep most internet communication safe.

Some 30 years ago, the mathematician Peter Shor took a niche physics project — the dream of building a computer based on the counterintuitive rules of quantum mechanics — and shook the world. Shor ...

For decades, the quantum threat to RSA and ECC encryption has been tied to Shor’s algorithm and the assumption that we would need million-qubit quantum computers to make it practical. A newly ...

The amount of quantum computing power needed to crack a common data encryption technique has been reduced tenfold. This makes the encryption method even more vulnerable to quantum computers, which may ...

Artificial intelligence has become the loudest conversation in logistics, but at Uber Freight, the technology has been part of the company’s DNA from the beginning. Speaking with Supply Chain ...

The encryption protecting communications against criminal and nation-state snooping is under threat. As private industry and governments get closer to building useful quantum computers, the algorithms ...

So, you’ve probably heard a lot of buzz lately about quantum computers and how they might break RSA encryption. It sounds pretty scary, right? Like the internet as we know it is about to crumble. But ...

Will quantum computers crack cryptographic codes and cause a global security disaster? You might certainly get that impression from a lot of news coverage, the latest of which reports new estimates ...

Quantum computers could crack a common data encryption technique once they have a million qubits, or quantum bits. While this is still well beyond the capabilities of existing quantum computers, this ...
