A Brief History of Quantum Computing
Shaw showed in 19 94 how a quantum computer should be able to factor large numbers into primes expedientially faster than a classical computer can. One of the steps in shaw's tum algarism can efficiently break an elliptic curve key, too. The technology has also spread beyond cibes base. For example, the radio frequency chips in everything from credit cards to security passes typically use elliptic curve algaritms.
