Day, when an algorithm written more than 30 years ago could run on a quantum computer and compromise the security of data on ...

Few people have invented an algorithm with the potential to spark a worldwide crisis, so why is quantum computing pioneer ...

It’s proven that today’s encryption is vulnerable to attack by a sufficiently mature quantum computer running Shor’s ...

Shor’s algorithm for factoring RSA-2048 (and related problems like elliptic-curve discrete logs) has seen dramatic reductions ...

Graduate student Seyoon Ragavan led the work alongside senior author Vinod Vaikuntanathan, a computer science professor at ...

Quantum computing advances raise concerns over 10,000 qubits breaking P‑256 encryption using Shor’s algorithm, driving urgency for quantum ECC attack awareness and post‑quantum migration strategies.

Building a utility-scale quantum computer that can crack one of the most vital cryptosystems—elliptic curves—doesn’t require nearly the resources anticipated just a year or two ago, two independently ...

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 ...
