A team at Google Quantum AI, led by researcher Craig Gidney, has shown that breaking RSA-2048 encryption could require roughly 20 times fewer physical qubits than previously estimated, collapsing the ...

Summary: Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL) is a strategy where attackers collect encrypted data today and store it until ...

Quantum Computers won’t be available for another decade. Why worry about them now, then? A cryptography expert explains.

Abstract: Attribute-based encryption (ABE) requires several elliptic-curve-based functions, including elliptic-curve scalar multiplication (ECSM), hashing to the curve, and pairing. Although these ...
