Where Cryptography Is Headed
By Adam Kovac, Semi Engineering (December 5th, 2024)
Security teams are scrambling to devise technology that keeps data secure in an era of virtually unlimited compute power.
Reports began surfacing in October that Chinese researchers used a quantum computer to crack military-grade AES 256-bit encryption. Those reports turned out to be wrong, but that did little to dampen concerns about what would happen if it was true.
The looming threat of quantum computers breaking today’s encryption, and the stockpiling of encrypted data in preparation for a time when it can be decrypted, continue to haunt the security industry. The misinformation that was repeated by multiple news outlets was merely a precursor to the real thing.
