Common computers can break the technology of common data encryption as soon as it contains a million Qubits, or a quantity bit. Although this still exceeds the existing quantum computers capabilities, this new estimate is less than 20 times what was previously believed, indicating that the daytime encryption is closer than we believe.
The RSA algorithm is widely used on the fact that doubling the main numbers to create a large encryption key is easy, but finding these original initial factors when all you have is the resulting key is …
