Microsoft is updating Windows 11 with a set of new encryption algorithms that can cope with future attacks of quantum computers in a move aimed at starting a jump, which is likely to be the most strong and important technology transfer in modern history.
Computers that are based on quantum mechanics physics are not yet out of sophisticated labs, but it is a well -established science that will eventually do it. Instead of taking binary conditions Zero and their data, quantum computers run on coibas, which at the same time include thousands of states. This new capacity promises to bring new discoveries of extraordinary scale in many fields, including metallurgy, chemistry, drug discovery and financial modeling.
Eliminating cryptopocalypse
One of the most disturbing changes to quantum computing is to break some of the common forms of encryption, in particular, based on the RSA crypto system and elliptical curves. These systems are the work horses on which banks, governments and worldwide online services have relied on for more than four decades to keep their most sensitive data confidential. The RSA and the elliptical curve encampration keys will need to be broken for millions of years using today’s computers to secure a web connection. A quantum computer can break the same keys in the case of hours or minutes.
Monday at Microsoft’s Blood 2025 Conference, Company Announced The availability of quantum resistant algorithm SummerPetCore Cryptographic Code Library in Windows. The latest library is available Build 27852 and more Version of Windows 11. Additionally, Microsoft has updated SummerPet Open SLIts open source project that allows a widely used open SL library to use smoking for cryptographic operations.
