Encryption is one of several cornerstones of a robust information security program. Articles on quantum computing often include the compelling narrative that encryption is at risk, but as with any ...

You might be familiar with the qubit, the fundamental unit of quantum information. As its name suggests, a qubit in a quantum computer performs the same function as a bit in a classical computer, with ...

You might think that creating a highly accurate model of the way air passes through a jet engine would be relatively easy. It is incredibly hard. The enormous number of variables means that it is, in ...

Get the latest federal technology news delivered to your inbox. Quantum science, and especially its most popular offshoot, quantum computing, have come a long way in a fairly short period of time.

Quantum hardware has finally crossed a psychological threshold: it is no longer a science project in search of a purpose, it is a working tool that large companies and governments are starting to use.
