    August in Vegas brings intense (but dry) heat and the annual Summer Hacker Camp of events. Arguably, the most fun and intriguing of the bunch is DEF CON (August 8-11, 2024), the world’s leading hacking conference, 32 years strong. The show features the third year of the Quantum Village. And for the second year in a row, host Konstantinos Karagiannis will be speaking. Join him for a chat with Mark…

    Error correction typically involves a lot of physical qubits and using them to create one logical qubit. Ratios vary by modality and approach, so getting a single fault-tolerant qubit may take seven to a thousand physical ones. What if there was a way to correct most of the errors that appear on each qubit instead? Scaling up from there would certainly be much easier, getting us to machines that…

    The phrase “quantum internet” gets tossed around a lot, usually as a placeholder for something that will fix many nonspecific issues in the future. The core concept of quantum networking is a real thing, though, and is more robust today than you might think. How does it work? How fast is it? And is it really running in the Big Apple? Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Noel Goddard…

    When Richard Feynman proposed the idea of a quantum simulator or computer in 1981, he was frustrated by the limitations of classical systems. He logically suggested that if we live in a quantum world, we need a quantum device to simulate all the interactions of particles that make up reality. An excellent example of such a transistor-choking calculation is the quantum many-body problem. Have…

    The migration to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is about to begin and is necessary to protect against the threats of fault-tolerant quantum computing. However, critical assets like those in military, banking, and government environments also require other layers of security and strategies such as zero trust and increased encryption bit sizes. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis as he discusses a…

    When NIST released the first post-quantum cryptography standards in August 2024, it set off a domino effect that will hopefully result in protecting the world from the quantum computing threat. Now that we’re beginning to migrate and trust our data to lattice-based cryptography, it’s a good time to examine how ML-KEM works and get some hints about how to implement it well. And who better to ask…

    Quantum computing is a fast-moving field, and not just when photons are involved. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a wide-ranging chat with Anastasia Marchenkova where they cover recent developments and potential future outcomes. Topics include: chip hype, logical qubits, imminent practical business use cases, quantum random numbers, the implications of AI in quantum coding, investing, and…

    Imagine a world where quantum computers seamlessly share entangled particles across data centers, solving problems beyond the reach of classical systems. This may be possible soon thanks to a groundbreaking quantum networking entanglement chip capable of generating 200 million entangled photon pairs per second at room temperature. Cisco is redefining networking again, doing everything from…

    DEF CON 33 approaches, bringing with it the fourth year of Quantum Village. Nothing like getting hands-on with quantum computing and sensing technology at the world’s leading hacking conference. To that end, this episode explores the open-source quantum sensing device and software that our guests Mark Carney and Victoria Kumaran are presenting in Vegas. And yes, for the third year in a row, host…

    IonQ is poised to redefine the quantum computing landscape, projecting a staggering 80,000 logical qubits by 2030—potentially unlocking the power to crack encryption. NIST has us on a timeline to upgrade to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) by 2035, so this 5-year gap may spell doom for cybersecurity. Of course, these machines will also revolutionise industries from finance to drug discovery to AI…
