Heartbleed is 10 Years Old – Farewell Heartbleed, Hello QuantumBleed!

Heartbleed made most certificates vulnerable. The future problem is that quantum decryption will make all certificates and everything else using RSA encryption vulnerable to everyone.

Cyber Insights 2024: Quantum and the Cryptopocalypse

Quantum computers are coming, and will defeat current PKE encryption. But this cryptopocalypse is not dependent upon quantum computers — it could happen through other means, at any time.

Gravitational pull of half a sand grain measured in physics breakthrough

The weak gravitational pull on a particle just half the mass of a grain of sand has been measured for the first time. This most precise measurement of its kind is a breakthrough towards the quantum realm and a potential Theory of Everything.Continue Re… Continue reading Gravitational pull of half a sand grain measured in physics breakthrough

Quad-storage method writes data to a single atom in four different ways

You can cram much more quantum processing power into a given space if you use four different ways to store data on a single atom, according to new research. The method unlocks more powerful quantum computers that are easier to control.Continue ReadingC… Continue reading Quad-storage method writes data to a single atom in four different ways

AI, aliens and giant poo piles: Weirdest science stories of 2023

Some scientists are working to tackle climate change or cure cancer, but others are more focused on figuring out if time travel really would follow Back to the Future rules. From where “love” is felt in the body, to the scientific value of giant piles … Continue reading AI, aliens and giant poo piles: Weirdest science stories of 2023

Quantum batteries could charge by breaking our understanding of time

Causality is key to our experience of reality: dropping a glass, for example, causes it to smash, so it can’t smash before it’s dropped. But in the quantum world those rules don’t necessarily apply, and scientists have now demonstrated how that weirdne… Continue reading Quantum batteries could charge by breaking our understanding of time

Hunting spacetime fluctuations could unite Einstein and quantum physics

A unified Theory Of Everything is the holy grail of physics, but gravity refuses to play ball. Now, a newly proposed theory attempts to unify Einstein’s theory of gravity with quantum mechanics – and importantly, outlines a way to test it experimentall… Continue reading Hunting spacetime fluctuations could unite Einstein and quantum physics

Diamond-stretching technique makes qubits more stable and controllable

Researchers are claiming a breakthrough in quantum communications, thanks to a new diamond-stretching technique they say greatly increases the temperatures at which qubits remain entangled, while also making them microwave-controllable.Continue Reading… Continue reading Diamond-stretching technique makes qubits more stable and controllable
