Ling, A. and Pandya, N. (2025) Quantum Computing and Quantum Sensing: A Pedagogical Introduction to Emerging Quantum ...

A quantum computer algorithm that is used to find the prime factors in an encryption key. Created by applied mathematician Peter Shor in the mid-1990s, Shor's algorithm may be used to break the codes ...

Ahead of schedule, Metaculus now predicts that quantum computers could factor an RSA number using Shor's algorithm by 2034. This is almost 20 years sooner than the previous forecast of 2052. These ...

The rise of quantum computing and its implications for current encryption standards are well known. But why exactly should quantum computers be especially adept at breaking encryption? The answer is a ...

Taiwan has advanced significantly in developing quantum computing technology, as a National Central University research team on studying the feasibility of executing the Shor algorithm has ...

Bitcoin’s security is about signatures, not encryption, and the threat isn’t nearly as immediate or simple as some FUD suggests.

Quantum computing represents a looming—and inevitable—threat to almost every aspect of our digital world that is protected by current forms of encryption. Either within this decade or the next, ...

Quantum computers will fundamentally change the way we look at humanity’s most complex problems. They promise new insights, from materials science to medicine and climate research. However, this ...
