Episode description
Quantum computers have the potential to defeat the RSA and ECC encryption underlying our digital world. We must swap out these algorithms before quantum computers reach that stage of maturity.

Join our hosts Tim Callan and Jason Soroko as they explain how to calculate the ominously named "Z date," the possible consequences of missing that deadline, and potential hairstyles for a post-apocalyptic world.
