Quantum computing will bring tumultuous change to the world of information security in the coming decade. As multi-qubit systems use quantum algorithms to slice through even 4096-bit PK encryption in seconds, new Quantum Encryption will be required to ensure data security. Join Konstantinos for a look at real world experiments in Quantum Key Distribution that BT and partners have recently performed that show what the future of encryption will look like. Remember the panic after Heartbleed when SOME passwords needed to be changed? Imagine a day when ALL communications are at risk of eavesdropping via Quantum Computers - a day when only new systems that exploit the weirdness of quantum mechanics can ensure privacy.
