"Intel Creating Cryptographic Codes That Quantum Computers Can't Crack"

The expectation that quantum computing will one day be powerful enough to break current encryption algorithms has prompted the race to develop new approaches to cryptography that can withstand quantum attacks. A team of Intel researchers has improved upon a quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithm that shows feasibility for smart home devices and industrial devices. The team's improved version of Bit-flipping Key Encapsulation (BIKE) uses a new decoder that requires less computing power. This article continues to discuss the improved version of BIKE, its potential use as a quantum-resistant algorithm, and the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology's Post-Quantum Cryptography Standardization Process.
