ESW #315 - Matt Johansen, Kayla Lee, Vadim Lyubashevsky

<p>Quantum computing is a rapidly emerging technology that harnesses the laws of quantum mechanics to solve problems that today’s most powerful supercomputers cannot practically solve. IBM's Dr. Kayla Lee will explain how close we are to a computational quantum advantage: the point where a computational task of business or scientific relevance can be performed more efficiently, cost-effectively, or accurately using a quantum computer than with classical computations alone.</p> <p> Segment Resources:</p> <p>What is quantum computing? <a href= "https://www.ibm.com/topics/quantum-computing">https://www.ibm.com/topics/quantum-computing</a></p> <p>About IBM Quantum: <a href= "https://www.ibm.com/quantum">https://www.ibm.com/quantum</a></p> <p>About the IBM Quantum Development Roadmap: <a href= "https://www.ibm.com/quantum/roadmap">https://www.ibm.com/quantum/roadmap</a></p> <p>Access and program a quantum computer: <a href= "https://quantum-computing.ibm.com/">https://quantum-computing.ibm.com/</a></p> <p> </p> <p>Quantum computers are scaling rapidly. Soon, they will be powerful enough to solve previously unsolvable problems. But they come with a global challenge: fully-realized quantum computers will be able to break some of the most widely-used security protocols in the world. Dr. Vadim Lyubashevsky will discuss how quantum-safe cryptography protects against this potential future.</p> <p>Segment Resources:</p> <p>IBM Quantum Safe: <a href= "https://www.ibm.com/quantum/quantum-safe">https://www.ibm.com/quantum/quantum-safe</a></p> <p>IBM scientists help develop NIST’s quantum-safe standards: <a href= "https://research.ibm.com/blog/nist-quantum-safe-protocols">https://research.ibm.com/blog/nist-quantum-safe-protocols</a></p> <p>Government and industry experts recommend moving to quantum-safe cryptography: <a href= "https://research.ibm.com/blog/economist-quantum-safe-replay">https://research.ibm.com/blog/economist-quantum-safe-replay</a></p> <p> </p> <p>We're talking with Matt Johansen about his new newsletter, Vulne
