Computer scientist Peter Gutmann tells The Reg why it's 'bollocks' The US National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) has been pushing for the development of post-quantum cryptographic ...

The specter of a quantum computer powerful enough to break today’s toughest codes has haunted militaries for years. An Australian project could bring their fears to life by 2027. It’s a rare example ...

Building on a landmark algorithm, researchers propose a way to make a smaller and more noise-tolerant quantum factoring circuit for cryptography. The most recent email you sent was likely encrypted ...

(MENAFN- Asia Times) Online data is generally pretty secure. Assuming everyone is careful with passwords and other protections, you can think of it as being locked in a vault so strong that even all ...

Google published a paper on March 31 that states that Bitcoin's cryptography could be impacted by quantum computing sooner than previously stated.

The researchers have proven PLANAR's effectiveness on surface codes under particular noise conditions and plan to adapt it for non-planar graphs with finite genus, opening the door to broader use in ...

James Check, founder and lead analyst at Bitcoin onchain analysis service Checkonchain, said Monday that the quantum threat is more of a consensus problem than a technology issue. In a Monday X post, ...

Two-dimensional projection of a quantum spherical code composed of two copies (black and red) of the four complex dimensional Witting polytope. This code can correct up to five photon losses of any ...

In less than five years, we will have access to an error-free quantum supercomputer – so says IBM. The firm has presented a roadmap for building this machine, called Starling, slated to be available ...

Algorithms called phantom codes could help quantum computers run complex programs without errors, overcoming a big hurdle for making the technology more broadly useful. Many popular error-correcting ...
