"The Pentagon is Trying to Secure Its Networks Against Quantum Codebreakers"

Quantum computers are expected to be capable of breaking current encryption systems, including those used by the government. Therefore, it is essential that new encryption techniques are further explored and developed. The Defense Information Systems Agency is making efforts towards safeguarding the Pentagon's IT infrastructure from quantum computer attacks. Security researchers are being asked to generate ideas for new encryption algorithms that would be resistant to such attacks. This article continues to discuss the expected advancement of quantum computing, the threat posed by quantum computing to data security, and the need to strengthen the Pentagon's network security against quantum computers.
