๐ฑ Microsoft warns we could see a 'Y2Q' (Years to Quantum) problem even worse than Y2K if systems aren't updated in time. All industries need to audit systems and get quantum-ready ASAP! #quantumcomputing #cybersecurity
๐Uh oh! New research shows #quantumcomputers could break RSA encryption in as little as 3 years, suggesting our data may not be secure for much longer. We need to transition to new quantum-resistant cryptography ASAP! #quantumcomputing
๐ Scientists achieved the first ever 'quantum hack!' By exploiting loopholes in quantum key distribution systems, they were able to intercept supposedly unhackable encrypted data. More security research needed! #quantumcomputing
๐ป New attack methodology called 'scrambling' could allow hackers to confuse and disrupt quantum computations through targeted noise insertion. We have to design systems resilient to such quantum hacking attempts! #quantumcomputing
๐ฎโโ๏ธ With great power comes great responsibility! As quantum computers grow more powerful, authorities are getting anxious about misuse. Some suggest we need quantum tech export controls to prevent military/terrorist abuse! #quantumcomputing
๐๐ธ Financial industry scrambles to prepare for the quantum apocalypse! Banks racing to quantum-encrypt transactions before criminals with quantum tech can steal funds in moments. Is anyone really safe? #quantumcomputing
๐ Experts estimate there's only about 3-5 years left to transition vital infrastructure like DNSSEC to 'post-quantum' cryptography before quantum computers can crack it. No time to waste! #quantumcomputing #cybersecurity
๐ก๏ธ New toolkit released to help developers assess #opensource software libraries for vulnerability to quantum attacks - important for building a quantum-safe software ecosystem. #quantumcomputing #security
