New Quantum Algorithm Warns of an Accelerated 'Crypto-Apocalypse'
Summary
BriefGlance reports on a new quantum algorithm (JVG) claiming fewer than 5,000 qubits could break RSA-2048, with factoring times as short as 11 hours. It frames this as accelerating the crypto-apocalypse timeline and urges urgent adoption of PQC, while noting the underlying paper is a non-peer-reviewed preprint and not yet validated.
