Quantum computers are a specter for future data security because they might break many of today's encryption methods. Among other things, this will affect encrypted emails, messenger services, or ...

A group of Chinese researchers has claimed to be able to break a widely used encryption scheme with a quantum computer that already exists, creating a possible boon for surveillance and a crisis for ...

As artificial intelligence fuels a surge in convincing deepfakes and quantum computing advances toward real-world use, researchers have developed a quantum-safe encryption system designed to protect ...

Once quantum computers become functional, experts warn, they could perform calculations exponentially faster than classical computers—potentially enabling them to destroy the encryption that currently ...

We all thought banking and military security was impenetrable? That was, until Chinese researchers used a D-Wave quantum computer to execute what they claim as the first successful quantum attack on ...

The pair will share the $1 million prize for their pioneering work in quantum cryptography and the broader field of quantum information science. Their 1984 paper ...

A new encryption method developed at Florida International University aims to secure digital content against the threat posed by future quantum computers.

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 ...

Imagine waking up one day to find that all your confidential emails are suddenly an open book for anyone with a powerful enough computer. Sounds like a nightmare, right? Well, with the rapid ...

Researchers from Tokyo University of Science in Japan have developed a faster and cheaper method for handling encrypted data while improving security. Currently, homomorphic encryption and secret ...
