Matthew Green warns public key cryptography could be lost

Original: Matthew Green: "I think we might lose public key cryptography"

Cryptographer Matthew Green, a professor at Johns Hopkins, warned that "we might lose public key cryptography," the mathematical foundation securing most internet communications, including HTTPS, messaging apps and digital signatures. His remark is fueling discussion about quantum computing threats and other risks to widely used encryption, and what a breakdown would mean for online security.

Why now: Concern over quantum computing and other advances that could break the encryption underpinning internet security
