Resumen de S.O.S. Save Our Secrets
Brooks explores the way to outsmart quantum computers. The danger lies in the fact that, before long, someone will build a quantum computer that can crack our most powerful encryption methods -- the mathematical tricks that turn data into unreadable secret code to hide it from prying eyes. The only way to defend ourselves is to build codes that even the most powerful machines conceivable cannot crack. Which is exactly why some of the world's smartest mathematicians have been attempting to invent a whole new class of encryption algorithms. Having submitted their best designs to the post-quantum cryptography group at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Maryland, scores of teams are now engaged in a global race to identify the most secure by trying everything they can think of to crack each other's codes
