Quantum Computers Need Just 10,000 Qubits - Not The Millions We Assumed - To Break The World's Most Secure Encryption Algorithms

Researchers Say Quantum Computers Could Crack All Encryption Algorithms With Just 10,000 Qubits, Not Millions as Previously Thought

Sumi

For years, cybersecurity experts told us not to panic. Quantum computers capable of cracking modern encryption were still decades away, they said. We’d need millions of qubits, impossibly advanced hardware, and a technological leap so massive that there’d be plenty of time to prepare. Turns out, that timeline might be terrifyingly shorter than anyone expected. ...

  They seem to materialize between one weather report and the next: dark green patches on a hillside that looked bare last week, saplings bursting through ash, a corridor of shade where sun beat down all summer. The story sounds supernatural, but the explanation is both older and more astonishing than myth. Ecologists have learned ...
