Few people have invented an algorithm with the potential to spark a worldwide crisis, so why is quantum computing pioneer Peter Shor so unconcerned? Karmela Padavic-Callaghan spoke to him to find out ...
There is a potential dark side to quantum computing, one that is a threat to how we secure data. Back in 1994, Peter Shor developed an algorithm for factoring large numbers using a quantum computer, ...
Day, when an algorithm written more than 30 years ago could run on a quantum computer and compromise the security of data on ...
Graduate student Seyoon Ragavan led the work alongside senior author Vinod Vaikuntanathan, a computer science professor at ...
It’s proven that today’s encryption is vulnerable to attack by a sufficiently mature quantum computer running Shor’s ...
The Galaxy initiative arrives as researchers, exchanges, and the U.S. government warn the quantum threat may land as soon as ...

Quantum computers could expose our digital secrets – but there are much better reasons to build them
Quantum computers are coming. Or, at least, that’s what current predictions say. These machines harness the power of quantum mechanics, the set of rules governing how physics operates at atomic and ...
