The team at Infleqtion used their Sqale neutral atom processor to accomplish the feat. While the setup only uses six logical qubits, and we’re still in the range of factoring 15 or 21, this is both a proof of concept and a proof of the need for post-quantum cryptography (PQC). We discuss the aggressive 2.5:1 physical-to-logical… Podcast September 22, 2025 FPS Podcast | CMMC Rule is Out - What Contractors Must Know With DOD Contracts On September 10th, 2025 the "CMMC Final Rule" was published in CFR48.
