The day when a quantum computer manages to break common encryption, or Q-Day, is fast approaching, and the world is not close ...

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

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

Part one explained the physics of quantum computing. This piece explains the target — how bitcoin's encryption works, why a ...

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

But RSA worked until the advent of quantum computers. These machines harness the physics of subatomic particles to process information in fundamentally different ways, including factoring long strings ...

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 ...

A newly developed encryption framework aims to protect video data from future quantum attacks, all while running on today's ...

Google's quantum paper made headlines with that number. Here's what it means, what's actually at risk, and why 6.9 million bitcoin are more exposed than the rest.

Elon Musk has a fresh take on quantum computing threats.

Quantum computing is a largely theoretical, ultimately expensive proposition for high-level computation. However, new ...
