Q-Day—the day when a cryptographically relevant quantum computer can break most forms of modern encryption—is fast approaching, leaving the complex systems our societies rely on vulnerable to a new wave of cyberattacks. While estimates just a few years old suggested that a quantum computer capable of running Shor’s Algorithm would not be operationally available until 2029 or later, more recent research to produce fault-tolerant quantum systems, such as the 48 qubit system produced by a … More
