Quantum Computing Concepts for Cybersecurity

Quantum mechanics has revolutionised the way how to think about the world; its characteristics still perplex the brightest minds, even among physicists. Yet brilliant minds like Richard Feynman, who seemingly said “If you think you understand quantum mechanics, then you don't” thought of new ways to harness whatever they understood; he saw e.g., that quantum-based computers will be needed to perform calculations that would be impractical or impossible using classical computers. Quantum computing, though still at small scale, has since become reality and is poised to revolutionises many areas involving computations. This course focuses on explaining (and de-mystifying) basic concepts of quantum computing in the context of the vast risks for privacy and cybersecurity; it also addresses areas where quantum computing can improve privacy and cybersecurity. The course explains the typical physics jargon and technical details in an understandable way for non-Information Technology (IT) audience and decision makers.

This course complements our Cybersecurity Primer which focusses on traditional cyber-security.
