The algorithms can be categorized in many different ways, but perhaps the most fundamental is the distinction between symmetric and asymmetric encryption.

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.

SIKE was a contender for post-quantum-computing encryption. It took researchers an hour and a single PC to break it.

Included in the encryption standards are the algorithms’ computer code, implementation instructions, and the intended uses for each form of encryption.

But many of these encryption algorithms (including those that rely on multiplying two large prime numbers together) were originally developed decades ago, before researchers had developed quantum ...

In a nutshell: Researchers at China's Tsinghua University believe they have discovered a quantum-based algorithm capable of breaking today's most complex encryption standards. The team claims that ...

Shenzhen, Jun. 09, 2025––MicroAlgo Inc. (the "Company" or "MicroAlgo") (NASDAQ: MLGO), today announced that by integrating the quantum image LSQb algorithm with quantum encryption technology ...
