Quantum computers promise to revolutionize computing by solving problems previously considered unsolvable. As The New York Times reports, “quantum computing can significantly accelerate the processing of big data and complex algorithms.” This opens new opportunities in science and technology.
However, according to Financial Times, “quantum computers pose a threat to modern encryption methods.” With their development, there is an urgent need to create new cryptographic methods to safeguard information.

It’s highly probable that quantum-resistant cryptographic methods will be developed using the power of quantum computing itself. However it might be extremely expensive due to the high costs of creation and content process.
