Post-quantum cryptography is moving from a future security concern to a practical planning issue for organizations. Quantum computers powerful enough to break widely used public-key encryption aren’t ...

Quantum computing has long been portrayed as a looming threat to cybersecurity. Headlines warn of “Q-Day”—the moment when quantum machines will render today’s encryption useless. But behind the hype ...

No longer relegated to post-doctorate physics academia and sad Schrödinger's cat thought experiments, post-quantum computing remediation has arrived in the real world. Quantum computing is expected to ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Hard problems are usually not a welcome sight. But cryptographers love them. That’s because certain hard math problems underpin the ...

Online data is generally pretty secure. Assuming everyone is careful with passwords and other protections, you can think of it as being locked in a vault so strong that even all the world’s ...

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 ...

Hard problems are usually not a welcome sight. But cryptographers love them. That’s because certain hard math problems underpin the security of modern encryption. Any clever trick for solving them ...
