Can post-quantum algorithms be run on commercial devices?
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 5 down vote favorite Noob alert! Can we run quantum safe algorithms on commercial devices (like phones, laptops, etc)? I've seen some messaging apps and vpn providers marketing themselves as quantum-proof. How likely is that all these claims are bogus for marketing (imo, very)? post-quantum-cryptography share | improve this question asked Aug 31 at 16:32 Ana-Maria 28 3 2 "Post-Quantum" commonly refers to algorithms that are secure against classical computers and quantum computers. They can run on classical computers. We are searching for practical PQC algorithms that we can use in place of classical asymmetric key algorithms. There is also "Quantum Cryptography" which refers to communication that exploits quantum mechanics for security. QC can't be done with the classical internet. Nor does QC include algorithms you can use offline (for tasks like encrypting a hard-dr...
