Means to Control Surface Conductivity in 3D Topological Insulator
Means to Control Surface Conductivity in 3D Topological Insulator. Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Ames Laboratory have discovered a means of controlling the surface conductivity of a three-dimensional (3D) topological insulator, a type of material that has potential applications in spintronic devices and quantum computing. 3D topological insulators are emerging materials that hold great […]
Revisit: U.S. NSF Award to Study Cyber Hacking of Post Quantum Cryptographic Algorithm Implementations
Revisit: U.S. NSF Award to Study Cyber Hacking of Post Quantum Cryptographic Algorithm Implementations. Quantum computers are believed to have a potential to perform specialized calculations beyond the reach of any supercomputer in existence today, threatening today’s major public-key cryptography standards. Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) is devoted to the design and analysis of cryptographic algorithms that are […]
Studying Cyber Attacks on Post-quantum Cryptographic Algorithm Implementations
Studying Cyber Attacks on Post-quantum Cryptographic Algorithm Implementations. Florida Atlantic University is one of a trio of schools to have received funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation to study post-quantum computing algorithms. The funds are to study the vulnerabilities of post-quantum computing resistant algorithm implementation. “Side-channel attacks are real threats to the practical implementation of […]
Quantum Communication: Explained
Quantum Communication: Explained. If any aspect of quantum mechanics is ready to be commercialized, it is quantum communication. But what are we talking about? What is quantum communication? Consider these terms: Quantum key distribution, quantum repeater, quantum internet…are all parts of quantum communication. The team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has put together an “Explainer.” […]
