Signal takes a quantum leap with E2EE protocol upgrade

Signal has announced an upgrade to its end-to-end encryption (E2EE) protocol to protect users of its popular messaging app from encryption-breaking attacks through quantum computers. Getting ready for quantum computing “Quantum computing represents a new type of computational system which leverages quantum mechanical properties to solve certain complex problems many orders of magnitude more quickly than modern classical computers. Instead of bits as in a classical computer, quantum computers operate on qubits,” explained Ehren Kret, … More →
