Quantum computing poses a serious threat to conventional cryptography due to powerful quantum algorithms like Shor's and Grover's, which can compromise commonly used encryption schemes.
Preparing for quantum computing challenges now can lead to the development of quantum-resistant cryptography, using both classical and quantum techniques to withstand quantum attacks and enhance security.
Quantum cryptography offers innovative possibilities like quantum key distribution and quantum secure communication, driving collaboration and innovation across various fields to enhance security and privacy.
Encryption is like a secret code that keeps your information safe and private using algorithms and keys.
End-to-end encryption ensures that only the sender and recipient can access and read messages, offering a high level of security and privacy.
Signal Protocol, with features like the Double Ratchet Algorithm, is widely used in popular messaging apps to provide strong security for user communications.
Public goods are resources that are nonexcludable and nonrivalrous, and modern technology is making some private goods resemble public goods.
Mechanisms for funding public goods face challenges like the free-rider problem and impossibility theorems regarding efficiency, incentive compatibility, individual rationality, and budget balance.
Different mechanisms like assurance contracts, Vickrey-Clarke-Groves mechanism, quadratic funding, lotteries, and the Lindahl process aim to address the public goods funding problem, each with its own strengths and challenges.
The value of industry in orbit will be enormous, with falling launch prices enabling new possibilities for Earth in areas such as communications and ecosystem management.
Satellites can revolutionize communications by providing fast, ubiquitous space internet and increasing the speed and accessibility of various applications like stock exchanges and online gaming.
Satellites have great potential for enhancing security through the use of cryptography, as they offer secure platforms for encryption methods like quantum cryptography and relativistic cryptography.

Sansec announced the acquisition of 66.9349% shares of Jiangnan Keyou on June 19, 2023, aiming to improve resource integration and leverage synergies.
China's regulatory framework for cryptography has been improving with laws like the 'Password Law' and revised 'Regulations on the Administration of Commercial Cryptography,' accelerating the industry's development.
Upon completion of the acquisition, Jiangnan Keyou will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sansec.
The US National Institute of Standards and Technology announced post-quantum cryptography standardisation proposals, marking a historic day in modern cryptography.
Cryptography courses will now include post-quantum cryptography standards in the curriculum, with a focus on the selected standards.
The Quantum Formalism community encourages participation in lectures, Discord community engagements, and sponsorships for events like LOGML Summer School, emphasizing the importance of advanced Geometry in Machine Learning.
