Why We Should Be Scared of Shor's Algorithm Right Now

Explore the implications of Shor's Algorithm on modern cryptography in this 44-minute conference talk from Devoxx Poland 2019. Delve into the world of quantum computing and its potential to break current encryption techniques. Learn about qubits, logic gates, superposition, and quantum interference. Understand the basics of cryptography, classical computing, and the quantum Fourier transform. Discover why action is needed now to prevent future security catastrophes. Examine quantum programming, the potential demise of RSA encryption, and the BB84 quantum key distribution protocol. Gain insights into the history and future of cryptography in the age of quantum computers.
