Vaccinate Your Data Processing Against Quantum Computing With Homomorphic Encryption
Quantum Computing and Encryption Security’s Impact on Healthcare Privacy It sounds like science fiction: quantum computing – immense computing power allowing multiple concurrent computing functions and math computations at speeds previously unimaginable. But it is increasingly becoming a reality. While still in the equivalent of early mainframe computing, more powerful quantum computers are being developed […]
NIST is Nearly Ready to Announce the First Post-Quantum Computing Standard
NIST Quantum Cryptography Program Nears Completion Read More… + NIST should be applauded for getting ahead of the need for post-quantum encryption. The results of the most recent selection round, in which the number of candidates was reduced and “tracked” into two groups, can be found in the Status Report on the Second Round of […]
Quantum Computing has Implications for Security, What are They?
Security Implications Of Quantum Computing Key points… + For public key cryptography, such as RSA and ECC (Elliptic-Curve Cryptography), quantum computing represents an existential event. A fully developed quantum computer using Shor’s algorithm, a polynomial-time quantum computer algorithm for integer factorization, will be capable of cracking a 2048-bit RSA implementation in perhaps as little as […]

Punctuates the need to get moving on your post-quantum data security plan. Because Quantum is Coming. Qubit How to Protect Embedded Systems from the Quantum Apocalypse Read More… + Labeled as the […]
NIST’s Post Quantum Cryptographic Quest is not Quite so Much of an Enigma
NIST’s Post Quantum Cryptographic Quest New to quantum computing? Familiar but haven’t taken a step back and refreshed some of the basic goings-on? This work from Thomas Pöppelmann provides a refresher of the NIST post-quantum standardization effort. Worth the read from the source, below. Because Quantum is Coming. Qubit How NIST Is Securing The Quantum […]
Quantum Dots, Qubits, and Artificial Intelligence to Create Them Automatically
Quantum Dots, Qubits, and Artificial Intelligence to Create Them Automatically Well done piece, very descriptive, and best of all… in layperson’s terms. Recommend reading straight from the source. Because Quantum is Coming. Qubit Ebb and Flow: Creating Quantum Dots Automatically With AI Read More… + Even though research on artificial intelligence (AI) goes back to […]

Cybersecurity Gets Quantum Resistant Layer 2 and Layer 3 Device
Cybersecurity Gets Quantum Resistant Layer 2 and Layer 3 Device Yet another example of the cybersecurity industry leading the way to quantum safe data transmission. The device being peddled is aimed at IPSec and MACsec protocols and the application of quantum-safe algorithms to them. Interesting to see this latest step toward quantum in the commercial […]
Newly Released NIST Data Privacy Draft Supports Quantum Computing Implementation
Newly Released NIST Data Privacy Draft Supports Quantum Computing Implementation We’ll have to dip our whiskers into this draft. NIST always has a lot to say, or add, to any cybersecurity conversation. Good to see quantum computing cybersecurity is making its way into data privacy documentation at a Federal level. Because Quantum is Coming. Qubit. […]
Is 2020 the Year the U.S. Government and Private Sector Get Serious about Quantum Security?
Is 2020 the Year the U.S. Government and Private Sector Get Serious about Quantum Security? Getting America Quantum Ready In 2020 Excerpts ~ + [Arthur Herman] predicted in December 2018 in this column, that 2019 would be the year of America’s Quantum Leap. Certainly the development of quantum computers continued apace, but there were also […]
