Вы, наверное, слышали, что все перейдут в будущем на новое шифрование, и на квантовые компьютеры банкам будет плевать.Основная проблема в том, что трафик собирается уже сейчас, чтобы, когда кубит будет доступен условно «каждой домохозяйке», пооткрывать эти пакеты.Итак, есть такая штука — CRQC, или криптографически релевантные квантовые компьютеры.
