Every password, bank transaction and private message sent today is protected by encryption that relies on mathematical problems so complex that current computers would take millions of years to crack them but a powerful quantum computer could solve the same problems in minutes. The threat is not distant science fiction, as researchers believe quantum machines capable of breaking standard encryption could arrive within the next decade, and attackers are already collecting encrypted data today with the intention of decrypting it later when the technology matures.
