Monday, September 30, 2019

This new computing architecture takes advantage of quantum mechanics to deliver capabilities beyond what traditional binary computing can achieve.

Key Points: 
  • This new computing architecture takes advantage of quantum mechanics to deliver capabilities beyond what traditional binary computing can achieve.
  • Once quantum computers reach a certain state of maturity, they are destined to render the cryptographic underpinnings of todays digital systems insecure.
  • This efficiency gain is so monumental that increasing the key sizes of these cryptographic schemes is not a viable solution.
  • Thought leaders from industry, academia, and government are combining efforts to discover and deploy quantum-resistant cryptographic solutions across our global digital systems.
