Scientists have recently unveiled a groundbreaking quantum bit, or qubit, design that promises to revolutionize quantum ...

In cybersecurity, few threats are as paradoxical and pressing as the ones posed by quantum computing. Quantum computers ...

Quantum computers, using Shor's algorithm, could break the public-key cryptography (like ECDSA) that protects crypto wallets, ...

Safe Encryption Before It’s Too Late Cybersecurity has always had to keep pace with the evolution of cyberattacks. These attacks started gaining prominence in the late 80s, in line with ...

Enter: Shor’s Algorithm and the Quantum Threat In 1994, mathematician Peter Shor developed an algorithm that showed quantum computers could, in theory, break widely used encryption schemes.

Mathematics Approach PQC is based on identifying mathematical ciphers that are resistant to Shor’s algorithm, such as lattice-based and isogeny. NP-hard problems resist quantum attacks.

One of the most well-established and disruptive uses for a future quantum computer is the ability to crack encryption. A new algorithm could significantly lower the barrier to achieving this. Despite ...

Project Eleven, a quantum computing research organization, has announced the launch of the Q-Day Prize, a global challenge offering 1 BTC to the first team able to break an elliptic curve ...

Shor told the magazine that he thought it was possible he might see this happen in his lifetime. At the December 2022 HIMSS Cybersecurity Forum in Boston, Matthew Scholl, division chief of NIST's ...

Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) refers to algorithms that are resistant to attacks by a quantum computer. Some of the methods include lattice-based cryptography, hash-based signatures and ...
