Classical Cryptography and the Impacts of Quantum Computing

We experience the benefits of classical computing every day. However, there are challenges that today’s systems will never be able to solve. For problems above a certain size and complexity, we don’t have enough computational power on Earth to tackle them. To stand a chance at solving some of these problems, we need a new kind of computing. We are entering a new cryptographic era with the advent of quantum computers. The exponential growth in scale available in this new kind of computing presents great opportunity for research, however, if exploited with bad intentions this capability also creates a threat to existing cryptographic algorithms that enable cyber-security today. This session will talk about the impact that Quantum Computing will have on today's classical cryptographic algorithms.
