minus-squareAdanisi@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·edit-21 year agoAren’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.
minus-squareblackfire@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·1 year agoI 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
minus-squareQuazarOmega@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoI think so, also wasn’t quantum computing a real threat for asymmetrical encryption only? Some info over here
minus-squareAdanisi@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·edit-21 year agoYeah, and since symettric encryption is usually used for file encryption and stuff like that, I honestly don’t see the point in this.
minus-squareQuazarOmega@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoExactly, well if anything, I guess the claim is technically correct, which in this case may not be the best kind of correct
