The rate at which quantum computing is hitting the media stream is ever-increasing. This piece is a collection of recent articles and reports covering various aspects of quantum computing from the lens of government and policy. Mea Cubitt
Two Brookhaven Lab Physicists Named APS Fellows | The American Physical Society (APS) has elected two scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory as 2021 APS fellows. With more than 45,000 members from academia, government, and industry, APS seeks to advance and share physics knowledge through research journals, scientific meetings, and activities in education, outreach, and advocacy. Each year, a very small percentage of APS members are elevated to the status of fellow through a nomination and selection process. Fellows are recognized for their exceptional contributions to physics, including in research, applications, leadership and service, and education. Source: Brookhaven National Laboratory.

5 Steps to Prepare Security for the Quantum Era | The digital economy depends on trust in the internet—without it, neither businesses nor consumers would feel safe conducting business or spending time online. Making that trust possible today are cryptographic algorithms embedded in hardware and software throughout most enterprise infrastructure. Like a reliable and unbreakable lock, these algorithms help safeguard sensitive personal and financial information and verify the integrity of internet transactions, as well as the identity of users and systems.
