Q-day is shorthand for the point when a cryptographically relevant quantum computer can break widely used public-key ...

Quantum physics is not itself a true revolution. The discovery of the laws that underpin it has been used as part of numerous technical evolutions for many years such as transistors or in medicine.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technology, quantum computing has emerged as a transformative force. While this progress holds immense promise, it also presents challenges for current encryption ...

It might be only a matter of time before quantum computers crack the cryptography keys that support sensitive data and cryptocurrencies on blockchain networks. Now quantum software company Cambridge ...

The White House has announced a set of proposals for keeping the US ahead in the quantum computing race globally, while mitigating the risk of quantum computers that can break public-key cryptography.

Position-based quantum cryptography is a discovery that could lead to more secure communications, especially between devices used on military bases and satellites, based on using the geographical ...

An Anthropic model cut the work needed to break a leading post-quantum signature candidate by a factor of 67 million last month, while Bitcoin and Ethereum published their own migration plans this ...

Quantus, a proof-of-work blockchain designed around quantum-resistant security, has launched its mainnet, moving from testnet to a live network open to miners from day one, according to information ...

EU supervisors flag quantum computing as an emerging risk to blockchain cryptography, with 6.9M BTC held in addresses whose ...

Quantum computers are advancing rapidly and therefore could make asymmetric cryptography powerless after 2030.

The famous cryptographers Leonard Adleman, Ronald Rivest, and Adi Shamir – the developers of the RSA encryption code – received the Association for Computing Machinery’s 2002 Turing Award “for their ...

In 2018, Aayush Jain, a graduate student at the University of California, Los Angeles, traveled to Japan to give a talk about a powerful cryptographic tool he and his colleagues were developing. As he ...
