Using just a laptop, an encryption code designed to prevent a quantum computer attack was cracked in just 53 hours | Science & Tech | EL PAÍS English Edition

Security in an age when quantum computing is about to explode is one of the major concerns for all of the protection systems the world over. (According to Jian-Wei Pan, the major expert in this scientific field in China, “the next quantum breakthrough will happen in five years.”) The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) wanted to put seven encryption formulas to the test in order to determine their vulnerability to the new processing systems. Ward Beullens, from the IBM research center in Zurich, Switzerland, managed to crack an encrypted code in just 53 hours and with a simple laptop.

Did the researcher take 53 hours to crack the code? Really?

It's just more ignorant technonazi propaganda from the bell turd. Just more advertising for 'quantum' scams to get more 'grants'. It means nothing. Notice that the bell turd is a completely brain dead believer in 'medical science', not to mention a non human vaccine nazi. You can't take anything it says seriously.

It means nothing. addendum : it means nothing as far as 'quantum' computers go, which was the topic of bell's spam. It does mean that the masters of pentagon jewnazi 'cryptography' made a blunder, and their 'peer review' system is a joke, or maybe there's a more obscure explanation, for instance, the pentagon jewnazis sabotaging their own 'public' 'standards'. That would be so shocking... --------- Notice that the bell turd is a completely brain dead believer in 'medical science', not to mention a non human vaccine nazi.

Yeah that's Rainbow, one of the NIST round 3 finalist signature schemes. Not too surprised it was broken, as it uses extension fields which I have never trusted, they have too much (unused) structure. Peter Fairbrother On 26/03/2022 08:21, jim bell wrote:

Scarier is that both past and present, many broken cryptos have made it to the final rounds, and many cryptos thought/won secure in past have been broken or deprecated suspect. Which doesn't exactly lend confidence to winners of any competition. Composition... defense in depth.
