Following six years of development, the National Institute of Standards and Technology has released draft standards for three algorithms that can resist future attacks by quantum computers. The U.S.

On Tuesday, the U.S. finalized standards for post-quantum encryption — a move intended to ensure companies, citizens and government agencies can all stay ahead of the potential of quantum computers ...

Over the past several years, there has been a steady drumbeat of warnings about the impact of quantum computing on traditional encryption ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Paul-Smith Goodson is an analyst covering quantum computing and AI. Last year I wrote a Forbes article that provided a deep dive ...

The first round of PQC candidate algorithms that were announced by NIST on August 24 of last year. It included one general-purpose encryption algorithm (ML-KEM) and two digital signature algorithms ...

NIST standards for quantum-safe encryption are due out this summer. As quantum computing advances, enterprises need to consider their encryption infrastructure and post-quantum security strategies.

The age of quantum computers is fast approaching, and with it comes the potential threat of breaking classical encryption. The algorithms that have reliably protected our data, such as RSA and ECC, ...

For years, quantum computing felt like an exciting theory with no immediate risk, but that’s no longer the case. The gap between theory and application is steadily being closed by rapid advances made ...

Three NIST-approved encryption algorithms set the stage for establishing PQC strategies, which — despite quantum computing’s infancy — CISOs should begin launching given the attack techniques and ...
