Every online bank transfer, private message and Bitcoin transaction rests on the assumption that some math problems are practically impossible to solve. Quantum computers threaten to flip that ...

A new research paper by Google Quantum AI researcher Craig Gidney shows that breaking widely used RSA encryption may require 20 times fewer quantum resources than previously believed. The finding did ...

New research by Google suggested that RSA encryption, a critical security feature used in securing Bitcoin BTC/USD, may be more susceptible to quantum computing attacks than previously anticipated.

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 ...

Quantum computers should be powerful enough to crack Bitcoin’s security features—by instantly solving the mining mechanism or guessing wallet passwords by brute force—a few years after 2030, according ...

Skip Sanzeri is a strategic advisor at iValt, a leader in identity validation, and founder at QuSecure, a leader in quantum cybersecurity. It’s official: Passwords ...

Panagiotis (Panos) Vlachos's employer, Mastercard, covers his tuition fees. He is an active volunteering member of CyberPeace Builders and ISC2's Code TaskForce. Satellites are the invisible backbone ...

Quantum technology can process an enormous amount of data and solve complex problems in seconds rather than decades. Remarkably, quantum technology first appeared in the early 1900s. It originated ...

A researcher from the Google Quantum AI research team has estimated that a quantum computer with less than a million noisy qubits could undermine the security of RSA-2048 encryption that secures ...

Cracking quantum computing isn’t a matter of upgrading existing computers. It’s an entirely separate approach to computing that relies on the principles of quantum physics. “A fighter jet is not a ...
