A new algorithm can further exploit the twin challenges of information loss and translation to mimic a quantum computer with far fewer resources than previously ...

One of the most well-established and disruptive uses for a future quantum computer is the ability to crack encryption. A new algorithm could significantly lower the barrier to achieving this. Despite ...

Peter Shor published one of the earliest algorithms for quantum computers in 1994. Running Shor's algorithm on a hypothetical quantum computer, one could rapidly factor enormous numbers—a seemingly ...

The FIDO2 industry standard adopted five years ago provides the most secure known way to log in to websites because it doesn’t rely on passwords and has the most secure form of built-in two-factor ...

The new quantum computing algorithm, called "Quantum Echoes," is the first that can be independently verified by running it on another quantum computer. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

LaV's creators claim it's the first practical algorithm that can replace current-day encryption as the industry inches closer to creating a large-scale quantum computer. When you purchase through ...

What is the Q-Day prize? The Q-Day Prize is a challenge to make the Bitcoin network quantum resistant. On April 16, 2025, quantum computing-focused company Project 11 announced the “Q-Day Prize,” a ...
