EU Warns Q-Day May Precede Commercially Useful Quantum Computing

An EU warning suggests the quantum threat to encryption could emerge before quantum computers become commercially useful, according to Decrypt.

The EU has warned that Q-Day could arrive before quantum computers become commercially useful, according to a Decrypt headline.

Q-Day refers to the point when quantum computing can break widely used forms of public-key cryptography. Such encryption helps secure digital communications and cryptocurrency systems.

The warning distinguishes the potential security threat from the technology’s commercial development. The supplied source provides no timeline or further details about the EU assessment.
