Shor's Algorithm - The Quantum Threat to Encryption

In this episode of Technically U, we decode the quantum algorithm that could one day break the internet—Shor’s Algorithm. Join our expert hosts as they explore how this powerful algorithm uses the magic of quantum computing to factor massive numbers and threaten traditional encryption like RSA and ECC.✅ What is Shor’s Algorithm, and why was it a quantum breakthrough?✅ How it works using quantum Fourier transforms and period finding✅ Why it threatens encryption methods like RSA, ECC, and DSA✅ The current limitations of quantum computers—and how close we really are✅ Real-world quantum demonstrations and future implications✅ What businesses and governments must do to prepare with post-quantum cryptography✅ How “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later” is already a serious concernIf you’re in cybersecurity, IT, cryptography, or just curious about quantum’s real-world impact—this episode is a must-watch.
