with @danboneh @succinctJT @smc90This episode is all about quantum computing -- explaining what it is, how it works, what's hype vs. reality, and how to prepare for it/ what builders should do. Specifically, we cover: What quantum computing is and isn't, and what people are really talking about when they worry about a quantum computer that can break classic computing-based cryptography systems -- a cryptographically relevant post-quantum computer.When is it happening/ what are the "timelines" for quantum computing becoming a reality -- how many years away are we? -- and when are the U.S. government's deadlines/ NIST standards for post-quantum cryptography?How will different types of cryptography be affected, or not? What are different approaches and tradeoffs?Where does quantum computing and post-quantum crypto apply to blockchains -- which are not only more easily upgradable, but also by and large rely on signatures, not encryption, so may be more quantum-resistant in many ways (and not in others).As always, we tease apart the signal vs. the noise in recent "science-by-press release" corporate quantum-computing milestone announcements. We also help answer questions on when do builders need to plan their switch to a post-quantum crypto world, what pitfalls to avoid there (hint: bugs! software upgrades!). Finally, we briefly cover different approaches to post-quantum crypto; and also dig deeper on zero-knowledge/ succinct-proof systems and how they relate to post-quantum crypto. Our expert guests are: Dan Boneh, Stanford University professor and applied cryptography expert and pioneer; also Senior Research Advisor to a16z crypto;Justin Thaler, research partner at a16z, professor at Georgetown, and longtime expert and pioneer in interactive and ZK proof systems.SEE ALSO: Post-quantum blockchains by Valeria Nikolaenkomore resources + papers on topics mentioned:A Graduate Course in Applied Cryptography by Dan Boneh and Victor Shoup [see also]Proofs, Arguments, and Zero-Knowledge by Justin ThalerLatticeFold+: Faster, Simpler, Shorter Lattice-Based Folding for Succinct Proof Systems by Dan Boneh and Binyi ChenNeo: Lattice-based folding scheme for CCS over small fields and pay-per-bit commitments by Wilson Nguyen and Srinath Setty"Q-Day Clock" from Project Eleven -- public dashboard to visually track timeline for quantum computing to reach cryptographically relevant capabilities and break widely used encryption algorithmson hard forks for quantum emergenciesQuantum analysis of AES, Kyungbae Jang, Anubhab Baksi, Hyunji Kim, Gyeongju Song, Hwajeong Seo, Anupam ChattopadhyayThe Google Willow Thing by Scott AaronsonFAQs on Microsoft's topological qubit thing by Scott AaronsonMicrosoft's claim of a topological qubit faces tough questions, American Physical SocietyAs a reminder, none of this is investment, business, legal, or tax advice; please see a16z.com/disclosures for more important information including a link to our investments.

In this episode of Reimagining Cyber we  tackle two seismic shifts in digital security: the fight over encryption and the rise in quantum computing. First up, the UK's aggressive push against encryption. With legislation like the Investigatory Powers Act and the Online Safety Bill, the UK government is pressuring tech giants to create backdoors for law enforcement. But what happens when those backdoors fall into the wrong hands? Cybersecurity expert Tyler Moffitt doesn't mince words: “The moment you create a backdoor for the government, you open it up to everybody—cybercriminals, rogue states, you name it.” Apple initially took a hard stance, threatening to pull iMessage and FaceTime from the UK. But in a move that sent ripples through the industry, they recently scaled back their Advanced Data Protection feature for UK users. Is the result a chilling precedent that other governments may soon follow?If that weren't enough, encryption's future faces another existential threat—quantum computing. Even the strongest cryptographic methods in use today could become obsolete once quantum processors reach critical mass. To explore this, we revisit Episode 43: Inside the Fight to Protect Data from Quantum Computers, featuring veteran cryptographic engineer Terence Spies. He warns that the fundamental rules of encryption could soon change forever. “Unlike other areas of software, cryptography is about proving what can't happen,” Spies explains. “Quantum computing changes that equation entirely.”With quantum breakthroughs on the horizon, governments and enterprises must scramble to adopt post-quantum cryptography—before it's too late. Transitioning away from RSA and elliptic-curve encryption isn't just a technical challenge; it's a bureaucratic and logistical nightmare that could take decades. And yet, with quantum attacks potentially capable of breaking today's encryption in mere hours, the race is on to secure our digital future.Listen to the full episode of Reimagining Cyber and stay ahead of the encryption debate.

Quantum computers have the potential to solve big scientific problems that are beyond the reach of today's most powerful supercomputers, such as discovering new antibiotics or developing new materials. But to achieve these breakthroughs, quantum computers will need to perform better than today's best classical computers at solving real-world problems. And they're not quite there yet. So what is still holding quantum computing back from becoming useful?We speak to quantum computing expert Daniel Lidar at the University of Southern California in the US about what problems scientists are still wrestling with when it comes to scaling up quantum computing, and how close they are to overcoming them.This episode was written and produced by Gemma Ware and Katie Flood with production assistance from Mend Mariwany and sound design by Michelle Macklem.

Yale's Steve Girvin is a pioneer of quantum computing, and our guide for our first foray into understanding how these systems do and don't work. Over the course of our conversation, we come to realize that quantum computers are not performing computations per se - they're more devices that an be used to answer a specific set of questions about reality. We dig into the details of why some questions can only be answered with a quantum computer, how next generation encryption services will come with a way of detecting eavesdroppers, and try once more to understand if there's a way of looking at the Stern Gerlach experiment that doesn't need any kind of magic.

Did Chinese researchers really break RSA encryption? What did they do? What next-level terror extortion is being powered by the NPD breach data? The EU to hold software companies liable for software security? Microsoft lost weeks of security logs. How hard did the try to fix the problem? The Chinese drone company DJI has sued the DoJ over its ban on DJI's drones. The DoJ wishes to acquire "DeepFake" technology to create fake people. Microsoft has bots pretending to fall for phishing campaigns, then leading the bad guys to their honeypots. It's diabolical and brilliant. A bit of BIMI logo follow-up, then... A look at the operation of the FIDO Alliance's forthcoming Credential Exchange Protocol which promises to create passkey collection portability Show Notes - https://www.grc.com/sn/SN-997-Notes.pdf Hosts: Steve Gibson and Leo Laporte Download or subscribe to this show at https://twit.tv/shows/security-now.
