<p>The combination of quantum computing and security gets really complicated, really fast. Two of Zapata’s founders break down the basic types of quantum security methods, the different ways quantum will impact security at the enterprise level, and list some reasons why the time to start preparing for this next level of security innovation is now.<br> <br> Quantum Security Blog post: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/quantum-cryptography ">https://www.zapatacomputing.com/quantum-cryptography<br> </a>Silicon Quantum Computing Startup in Australia: <a href="https://www.itnews.com.au/news/sydney-quantum-computing-startup-splits-into-two-companies-579783 ">https://www.itnews.com.au/news/sydney-quantum-computing-startup-splits-into-two-companies-579783<br> </a>Variational Quantum Factoring: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/publications/variational-quantum-factoring/ ">https://www.zapatacomputing.com/publications/variational-quantum-factoring/<br> </a>The Density Functional Theory: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_functional_theory">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_functional_theory</a><a href="https://qiskit.org/textbook/ch-algorithms/quantum-fourier-transform.html "><br> </a>Rainbow broken on a laptop: <a href="https://medium.com/cambridge-quantum-computing/what-does-the-breaking-of-rainbow-mean-for-cybersecurity-21b125383cab ">https://medium.com/cambridge-quantum-computing/what-does-the-breaking-of-rainbow-mean-for-cybersecurity-21b125383cab<br> </a>QED-C's Guide to a Quantum Safe Organization: <a href="https://btq.li/en/blog/nist-update">https://btq.li/en/blog/nist-update<br> </a>Paper with IBM benchmarking VQF: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/publications/analyzing-the-performance-of-variational-quantum-factoring-on-a-superconducting-quantum-processor/ ">https://www.zapatacomputing.com/publications/analyzing-the-performance-of-variational-quantum-factoring-on-a-superconducting-quantum-processor/<br> </a>DARPA award for quantum benchmarking: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/news/zapata-darpa-award/ ">https://www.zapatacomputing.com/news/zapata-darpa-award/<br> </a><br> Intro/Outro music: Oblivious by Nihilore (<a href="https://www.nihilore.com/synthwave">https://www.nihilore.com/synthwave</a>)<br> Nihilore license: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode</a><br> <br> Follow us on Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/zapatacomputing">https://twitter.com/zapatacomputing<br> </a>Follow us on LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/zapata-computing">https://www.linkedin.com/company/zapata-computing<br> </a>The Quantum Pod is produced by <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/">Zapata Computing<br> </a>Host: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/team/ethan-hansen/">Ethan Hansen</a><br> Guests: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/team/christopher-savoie/">Christopher Savoie</a> and <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/team/jonathan-p-olson-jonny/">Jonathan Olson</a><br> Editing and commentary: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/team/ethan-hansen/">Ethan Hansen</a><br> Special thanks to: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/team/mick-emmett/">Mick Emmett</a> and <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/team/robert-kerstens/">Rob Kerstens</a></p>
