Spotted an interesting report recently stating that 768-bit RSA encryption has been broken. Specifically, what researchers have done is factorised a 768=bit 232-digit number using a number field sieve ...

A new research paper by Google Quantum AI researcher Craig Gidney shows that breaking widely used RSA encryption may require 20 times fewer quantum resources than previously believed. The finding did ...

Chinese researchers have successfully used D-Wave‘s quantum annealing systems to break classic encryption RSA, potentially accelerating the timeline for when quantum computers could pose a real threat ...

Every online bank transfer, private message and Bitcoin transaction rests on the assumption that some math problems are ...

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 ...

One of the more interesting – and some say controversial -- pieces of news to come out of the recent 2023 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas was a claim by Chinese scientists who say they’ve ...

Q-Day” may be a years away, but there's an urgent need to get serious about quantum security today, experts have warned.

Late last month, a group of Chinese scientists quietly posted a paper purporting to show how a combination of classical and quantum computing techniques, plus a powerful enough quantum computer, could ...
