Quantum computing is rapidly emerging as a major disruptor for information security. Current public key cryptosystems (such as Rivest‒Shamir‒Adleman [RSA] and elliptic curve algorithms) rely on mathematical problems that classical computers cannot efficiently solve. But quantum computers will be able to exploit the algorithms that efficiently solve these problems...
