Android is now adding post-quantum cryptography by default — locking down your texts against computers that don’t exist yet

Every encrypted text you send today could be stored by an adversary and cracked open years from now by a quantum computer ...

Quantum computing looms, and your security is nowhere near ready

Quantum power is calculated in qubits. Every 10 qubits supports 1,024 computations, giving hackers 1,024 times the power to break encryption in one swoop, Steward illustrated. There are now machines ...
