The critical energy systems of the world must be kept safe from cyber-attacks, but the rapid emergence of quantum computing could make current encryption standards obsolete. CC is helping to spearhead a response with a research initiative that has significant implications for the good of society, national security and business in our quantum future.
The rise of quantum computing may soon enable us to solve complex real-world issues like the climate crisis and drug discovery more quickly. However, quantum computers could also cause havoc as they can compromise existing cryptographic systems, putting secure communications and data protection at risk.
In this Q&A, James Cruise, associate director of quantum algorithms, reviews what the U.K. government’s quantum missions mean for business.
