Project Eleven, a quantum security research company, awarded a prize to researcher Giancarlo Lelli for using a quantum computer to break a 15-bit elliptic-curve key — a small-scale version of the same ...

D-Wave Quantum's products are already being used by some companies in specific tasks.

Michael Shaulov argued that changing to a post-quantum cryptographic signature scheme is “not a technical challenge” for ...

Tue, December 23, 2025 at 1:00 PM UTC Because the goal is so lofty, tracking its progress has also been difficult. To help chart a course toward truly transformative quantum technology and mark ...

Building a utility-scale quantum computer that can crack one of the most vital cryptosystems—elliptic curves—doesn’t require nearly the resources anticipated just a year or two ago, two independently ...

Quantum computing is getting closer to reality.

Researchers and tech companies are in a global race to develop quantum computers that can solve hard scientific problems that conventional computers can’t, and that they hope can eventually support ...

The BIP outlines a phased shift to post-quantum cryptography, warning users, “fail to upgrade and you will certainly lose access to your funds.” Today, a new Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP) was ...

This transcript was prepared by a transcription service. This version may not be in its final form and may be updated. James Rundle: Welcome to Tech News Briefing. It's Tuesday, January the 7th. I'm ...

So the thing with car simulations is that they're made on an ordinary classical computer. But for experiments—especially ...

You might think that creating a highly accurate model of the way air passes through a jet engine would be relatively easy. It is incredibly hard. The enormous number of variables means that it is, in ...
