The discovery of quantum mechanics opened the door to fundamentally new ways of communicating, processing, and protecting data. With a quantum revolution well underway, long unimaginable opportunities ...

In theory, we've had this licked for hundreds of years. We've long known how to create totally unbreakable encryption, ciphers so strong that no amount of modern supercomputing power could brute force ...

The world’s longest quantum communications link has been set up between China and South Africa, spanning a record-breaking 12,900 km (8,015 miles). The connection takes advantage of quantum physics ...

A Swiss technology company says it has made a breakthrough by using quantum computers to uncover vulnerabilities in commonly used encryption. Terra Quantum AG said its discovery “upends the current ...

Silent Circle is the closest thing to a super-group in the cryptography universe, and for months it has just been sitting. The public wondered what monster figures like Phil Zimmerman, creator of PGP ...

Republican senatators have proposed a new bill that would end the use of unbreakable encryption by tech companies on the basis that it helps “terrorists and other bad actors to conceal illicit ...

Pioneering tech company Terra Quantum has discovered a weakness in ‘post-quantum cryptography’, the set of cryptographic systems securing communication protocols and networks against quantum computers ...

WASHINGTON A draft version of a Senate bill would effectively prohibit unbreakable encryption and require companies to help the government access data on a computer or mobile device with a warrant.

Professor Andrew Forbes is developing ultra-fast internet using lasers and quantum encryption, potentially transforming ...

In a world where data security is an ever-growing concern, Joshua Tyler—a computational engineering doctoral candidate and electrical engineering research associate at the University of Tennessee at ...
