The dreaded Q-day could arrive sooner than expected, and when it does, experts say we need to be ready. Reading time 8 minutes In 1994, American mathematician Peter Shor developed a quantum algorithm ...

Active Cypher built a mini-quantum computer (repurposed hardware running quantum algorithms) to prove that conventional encryption (RSA + AES) is nearing the end. This is designed to be a wake-up call ...

A quantum computer capable of breaking the encryption that secures the internet now seems to be just around the corner. Stunning revelations from two research teams outline how it could happen, with ...

Bitcoin’s security relies on elliptic curve cryptography, a one-way mathematical function that makes deriving a private key from a public key effectively impossible for traditional computers. Shor’s ...

The amount of quantum computing power needed to crack a common data encryption technique has been reduced tenfold. This makes the encryption method even more vulnerable to quantum computers, which may ...

Strengthen quantum security in 2026 with post‑quantum cryptography, post‑quantum encryption, and quantum‑safe migration strategies to protect sensitive data from the emerging quantum threat. Pixabay, ...

The Department of War released its first dedicated post-quantum cryptography strategy on Wednesday, June 24 — a 25-page mandate directing every military system, from battlefield communications ...
