The High Tech Tool for Good and Evil. The quantum computing reports we see daily may not be so visible to everyone. If you are new to the prospect of quantum computing and lead an IT or cybersecurity team, CISCO has hammered out a blog post with simplistic explanations of the very basics and just what YOU can do about the good and bad of this new tool.
In a nutshell, understand this: Encryption is everywhere, quantum computing is a different breed of cat, there is a “quantum advantage”, and, yes, the sky is falling. But hold back before you duck for cover. Though the sky is falling, proverbially, it’ll be a few years.
You need to get ahead of the good and the bad, now.
