There’s little doubt that some of the most important pillars of modern cryptography will tumble spectacularly once quantum computing, now in its infancy, matures sufficiently. Some experts say that ...
Reports began surfacing in October that Chinese researchers used a quantum computer to crack military-grade AES 256-bit encryption. Those reports turned out to be wrong, but that did little to dampen ...
Beyond advanced mathematics or theoretical computing breakthroughs, PQC is about protecting the systems enterprises already depend on to operate securely at scale.
In .NET 10.0, there are three methods for Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC). However, Microsoft deliberately omits another FIPS algorithm. 203 ML-KEM (CRYSTALS-Kyber) Key exchange for AES etc.
With growing focus on the existential threat quantum computing poses to some of the most crucial and widely used forms of encryption, cryptography engineer Filippo Valsorda wants to make one thing ...
What’s the best way to solve hard problems? That’s the question at the heart of a subfield of computer science called computational complexity theory. It’s a hard question to answer, but flip it ...
The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Say you want to send a private message, cast a secret vote, or sign a document securely. If you do any of these tasks on a computer, you ...
