Is quantum computing becoming relevant to cyber-security?

In the past decade, much has been done to explore the utility of quantum computing in the cybersphere, including cryptography and machine learning. 1–4 Despite the promising potential, there has, historically, been a considerable degree of scepticism over how quickly the community would overcome the numerous obstacles involved in controlling and measuring quantum particles. In the past decade, much has been done to explore the utility of quantum computing in the cybersphere, including cryptography and machine learning. The way in which quantum operations can be applied to achieve new algorithms is not yet fully understood, which means it's going to be an arms race. If you want to be ahead of the curve, says Keegan Keplinger of eSentire, you should learn quantum programming and find ways to implement the properties of superposition (that third bit state) in your everyday practice.
