Aren't the normal encryption algorithms used today quantum resistant anyways (like AES256)?
I'm all for stronger privacy and security, but this just seems like a gimmick, unless I'm missing something.
11 0 ReplyI read somewhere its only currently hard due to the number of qbits. Once they get over a certain number (I forget what) they will be breakable
6 0 ReplyI think so, also wasn't quantum computing a real threat for asymmetrical encryption only?
Some info over here3 0 ReplyYeah, and since symettric encryption is used for file encryption and stuff like that, I honestly don't see the point in this.
4 0 ReplyExactly, well if anything, I guess the claim is technically correct, which in this case may not be the best kind of correct
