Quantum Computing and Security

Quantum computing can address many difficult applications including cryptographic attacks that need to be mitigated.

This section includes article series that address quantum-computing technologies and issues.

Quantum computers make intractable math problems look like first graders’ math exams. This means trouble for cryptographic practitioners as our current algorithms are essentially...

Rambus's Security Technologies Fellow explains how new encryption standards will address the problem of quantum-computing attacks.

Quantum computers pose a significant threat to information security, and both the NCSC and the NSA agree that the best mitigation against it is post-quantum cryptography.

NXP helps standardize the next-generation of public-key security in a post-quantum cryptography world.

Don’t let the potentially cataclysmic quantum-computing onslaught catch you and your systems off-guard. Take these steps to upgrade to a quantum-safe PKI security infrastructure...

Quantum computing could substantially raise the bar in terms of security, especially when it comes to cracking crypto codes.

A team from the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory has conducted a series of experiments to gain a better understanding of quantum mechanics and pursue advances...
