Researchers are using quantum computers to generate keys that are truly random to strengthen data encryption.
The work on quantum computing hit some major milestones in 2024, making the path to a workable quantum computer seem closer than ever. Google, Microsoft, and other research efforts hit significant milestones this year, but is the cybersecurity world ready?
Researchers at Cavero have created a correlating numbers mechanism, adding a layer of privacy that even threat actors can't gain enough information to breach.
But the time when quantum computers pose a tangible threat to modern encryption is likely still several years away.
At Black Hat USA, researchers from Bitdefender and Transilvania Quantum will showcase how attackers can target quantum-based infrastructure.
A paper by two dozen Chinese researchers maintains that near-future quantum computers could crack RSA-2048 encryption, but experts call the claims misleading.
With the world potentially less than a decade away from breaking current encryption around critical data, researchers weigh in on planning for the post-quantum world.
