    Podcast | Room Temperature Quantum Computing — with Quantum Brilliance
    Can you put a quantum computer in a satellite, car, or even laptop? It’s possible with diamond-based quantum technologies that work at room temperature. Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center qubits challenge the notion that quantum computing is confined to massive data centers. Such mass-deployable quantum computers and sensors can be used in medical diagnostics, satellite imaging, and anywhere local…

    For $62.59, the 8 Character Password is Still Dead
    Five years ago, we wrote a post called “The 8 Character Password is Dead,” which was an in-depth look at password cracking in 2017 and how eight-character passwords do not adequately protect organisations. In that analysis, we broke down the math and how quickly hardware purchased for under $5,000 could make an eight-character length irrelevant. Unfortunately, in just five years’ time, the…

    Podcast | Making Colorado a Quantum Tech Hub — with Colorado OEDIT
    Since 2018, the United States has had a national strategy for excellence in quantum information science that includes getting the science right, enhancing competitiveness, and enabling people. To achieve that aim, regions across the country have begun ramping up their efforts to become quantum silicon valleys. Find out how Colorado stacks up in advancing the quantum stack, and how recent federal…

    Podcast | Protocols Accelerating Quantum Advantage — with Kipu Quantum
    How much performance can you squeeze out of quantum computing by improving the stack? A lot happens in code before classical bits touch qubits. One company’s hardware-specific algorithms, delivered via a cloud platform, supercharge real-world applications like protein folding and AI-enhanced machine learning. From outperforming classical tools like Gurobi on IBM’s 156-qubit processor to slashing…

    Podcast | Cracking Encryption by 2030? – with Dean Kassmann of IonQ
    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…

    Podcast | Quantum Supremacy Achieved — with D-Wave
    What better way to celebrate four years and 100 episodes of The Post-Quantum World than to talk about an achievement we’ve all been waiting for? If you’ve been watching quantum news feeds you might have heard of the D-Wave supremacy paper published in Science. Using an Advantage 2 system, D-Wave has performed a useful task for materials science faster and with less power consumption than a…

    Podcast | From Firewalls to Quantum Shields: A Blueprint for PQC Migration — with Palo Alto Networks
    You’ve likely heard of Pareto’s Principle or the 80/20 rule. Is there a way to achieve most of the benefits of crypto-agility with minimal effort? Palo Alto Networks has undoubtedly made its mark with firewalls and security detection and response offerings. We learn how they can also provide a rapid head start to PQC migration, covering everything from cryptographic inventory to creating wrappers…

    Podcast | Whispering Quantum Keys … Is QKD Still Viable as PQC? — with LuxQuanta
    We cover post-quantum cryptography (PQC) regularly on this show, focusing on the new math-based ciphers that will secure the Internet as quantum computing becomes more powerful. But what about physics-based encryption or quantum key distribution (QKD)? Is that still a thing? We examine how exploiting the laws of quantum physics can securely exchange encryption keys over a fiber and explore the…
