A lot has been made about a post-quantum computer future in which traditional encryption methods have suddenly been rendered ...

Traditional encryption methods have long been vulnerable to quantum computers, but two new analyses suggest a capable enough machine may be built much sooner than previously thought ...

However, it is not necessary to use fancy quantum cryptography technology such as entanglement to avoid the looming quantum ...

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 ...

The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has debuted three encryption algorithms that it claims will help safeguard critical data from cyber attacks originating from quantum ...

At the same time, a March 2026 preprint from a Caltech–Berkeley–Oratomic collaboration explores what might be possible using ...

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 ...

Firms should already be aware that quantum computing threatens to break the encryption that underpins all current digital interactions. That was already a significant challenge requiring focused ...

MIAMI, March 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As artificial intelligence fuels a surge in convincing deepfakes and quantum computing advances toward real-world use, Florida International University (FIU) ...

New research suggests that a quantum computer could crack a crucial cryptography method with just 10,000 qubits.

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 ...
