Quantum Security Goes Live with Samsung Galaxy

Quantum encryption, which has been touted as “unhackable,” debuts with Samsung, SK Telecom in a world’s first. Continue reading Quantum Security Goes Live with Samsung Galaxy

IBM’s quantum-resistant magnetic tape storage is not actually snake oil

Usually when someone in tech says the word “quantum,” I put my hands on my ears and sing until they go away. But while IBM’s “quantum computing safe tape drive” nearly drove me to song, when I thought about it, it actually made a lot of sense. Continue reading IBM’s quantum-resistant magnetic tape storage is not actually snake oil

Scientists advance quantum key distribution tech to strengthen cyber security

Researchers from the Centre for Quantum Technologies in Singapore are helping advance a technique involving pairs of entangled light particles to enable stronger cyber security. The project, driven by the NUS-Singtel Cyber Security Research & Devel… Continue reading Scientists advance quantum key distribution tech to strengthen cyber security

Quantum Computation, The Looming Dish of Doom

Homage to Olga’s Dish of Doom
via Martin Giles, writing at the MIT Technology Review, comes word from the National Academiesof Sciences, Engineering and Medicine of Looming Quantum Doom (currently scheduled within 20 years). Good News, eh?

‘The… Continue reading Quantum Computation, The Looming Dish of Doom

Quantum Computation Breaks Crypto? Unlikely…

Mark H. Kim, a contributing writer at Quanta Magazine illuminates a recent paper published at the IACR, and contributed by Daniel J. Bernstein, Nadia Heninger, Paul Lou and Luke Valenta, postulate in their paper ‘Post-quantum RSA’ that in fact, the RS… Continue reading Quantum Computation Breaks Crypto? Unlikely…

Chinese Quantum Satellite Sends First ‘Unhackable’ Data to Earth

In what appears to be the world’s first quantum satellite transmission, China has successfully sent an “unbreakable” code over a long distance from an orbiting satellite to the Earth, achieving a milestone in the next generation encryption based on “quantum cryptography.”

In August last year, China launched the world’s first quantum communication satellite into the Earth’s orbit aboard a Long

NIST Calls Development of Quantum-Proof Encryption Algorithms

Quantum Computers – Boon or Bane?

Quantum computers can perform operations much more quickly and efficiently even with the use of less energy than conventional computers, but that’s bad news for encryption — a process which scrambles data according to a massively complex mathematical code.

In theory, quantum computers can break almost all the existing encryption algorithms used on the
