    Hi all -

    This message area is intended for the discussion of security and encryption (and related topics) as they relate to programming & software development. Thanks, Art (of Fatcats BBS) for suggesting this area. :)

    Speaking of security, a while ago, I read that quantum computers will be so much faster than current computers that they should be able to crack our current toughtest encryption in seconds. I wonder what other types of encryption will need to be devleoped in order to prevent cracking current security with quantum computers when/if they are released.
