Quantum encryption, born from the quantum computing revolution, heralds a new era of unprecedented security. This ...

QKD uses photons — the smallest units of light — to securely transmit encryption keys. Any attempt to intercept them disturbs ...

Once quantum computers mature, they could crack Bitcoin’s ECDSA signatures, threatening over $1 trillion in value. Both require disruptive solutions, hard forks or complex hybrid signatures, to become ...

Dr. Pravir Malik is the founder and chief technologist of QIQuantum and the Forbes Technology Council group leader for Quantum Computing. In this article, I'll briefly expand on the idea of a quantum ...

In 1994, Peter Shor, an American mathematician working at Bell Labs, published a paper with a wonky title and earth-shaking implications. In “Polynomial-Time Algorithms for Prime Factorization and ...

Rather than choosing between the two, a layered “defense-in-depth” strategy is rapidly becoming the gold standard. Combining ...

Real life examples as to how social networking sites have become platforms for hacking private information enthralled the ...

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 ...

One notable example is the $34 million secured by British quantum algorithms specialist Phasecraft from a group of investors, ...

Digital security experts around the world have their eyes fixed on the Y2Q—“Years to Quantum”—clock. It ticks down the time until the projected date when a quantum computer will be able to break an ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology is accepting feedback on the Federal Information Processing Standards 203, 204 and 205 draft standards until November 22, according to its ...
