Will quantum computers be able to crack RSA this decade? Maybe. But figuring out that exact date is not what you and your organization should be worried about. A memorandum issued by the White House reveals when the quantum computing apocalypse will begin as far as information security boots on the ground are concerned. Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a deep dive into the NSM-10 memo and its near-term ramifications for the private sector.
To read the NSM-10 memo, visit www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/05/04/national-security-memorandum-on-promoting-united-states-leadership-in-quantum-computing-while-mitigating-risks-to-vulnerable-cryptographic-systems/.
Papers mentioned:
Where we get estimates for cracking RSA (https://arxiv.org/abs/1611.07995) and blockchain (https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.06752).
The Chinese paper on factoring with a “smaller” quantum computer than expected: https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.12372.
