Episode description
Quantum computers' threat to standardized encryption algorithms RSA and ECC has been much discussed. But what about our hashing algorithms? Do quantum computers pose a similar threat to SHA-2? Join our hosts as they discuss the difference between Shor's Algorithms and Grover's Algorithm, which applies to each part of cryptography, and how significant quantum computing will be for each.
