How quantum physics can make encryption stronger | Vikram Sharma



TED

As quantum computing matures, it’s going to bring unimaginable increases in computational power along with it — and the systems we use to protect our data (and our democratic processes) will become even more vulnerable. But there’s still time to plan against the impending data apocalypse, says encryption expert Vikram Sharma. Learn more about how he’s fighting quantum with quantum: designing security devices and programs that use the power of quantum physics to defend against the most sophisticated attacks.

  1. Nice story to understand the three key elements of encryption: key, exchange and algorithm. Vikram Sharma has solved the first two using quantum computing, which was the apparent enemy to encryption itself. Hope he is able to solve the third element i.e. algorithm, using quantum effects. All the best!

  2. I have a different viewpoint to Quantum Mechanics and Double Slit Experiment.
    In normal circumstances, human being is busy with either good deeds or bad deeds in the absence of anybody around him or when he thinks he is seen by nobody. We cannot know what he does is good or bad.
    In fact, in quantum mechanics the human being in the box may be busy with either good or bad or busy with both good deeds or bad deeds at the same time.
    However, when a sufi or darweesh thinks that there is somebody who always monitors him, he would behave differently as it is in double split experiment, and he would fix himself to do always the one which is good.
    The saying or hadith of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that “Even you cannot see Allah, He always sees you” has a lot of meaning in this sense in our philosophy of life.
    In conclusion, if human being knows that Allah always sees him does not do wrong things.

    Listen to the voice of The Noble Quran.
    And follow that which is revealed to you from your Lord. Indeed Allah is ever, with what you do, Acquainted. (Surah Al Ahzap. Verse 2)
    And your god is one God. There is no deity [worthy of worship] except Him, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.(Surah Al Baqarah Verse 163)
    Say, "It is only revealed to me that your god is but one God; so will you be Muslims [in submission to Him]?" (Surah Al Anbya Verse 108)

  3. Predicting the future is usually wrong as we can't think about what we don't know will exist in the future.
    And will the future show that quantum effects aren't "truly random"?

  4. If there's a security breach in today's system using encryption – it's not because someone had a powerful enough computer to brute force it or algorithms didn't have enough randomness. It's mostly because of some humane mistake or an exploit no encryption could've prevented. Seems like this talk had intentional misleading and fearmongering in order to promote some security companies and their products.

    You know how to achieve "true" randomness in computing? Calculate input values from user's mouse movement and tell him/her to randomly wiggle it. VeraCrypt does this. That simple. No much need for +10k dollar "randomness chips" this guy is probably selling from his company.

    But of course there's "quantum" buzzword so we have iamverysmarts applauding "REAL TED TALK" when there's actually very little substance in the talk itself.

  5. The fiber optic laser password fingerprint can be intercepted and copied as soon as the clocks from the two computers can be modified to lie about the send and recieve times. Therefore no interruption will be visible. If the message is sent and recieved by false clock times

  6. If Many Worlds theory is true, every quantum measurement clones the universe infinitely. Then use RQNG to guess the key. Wire some explosive to myself that explodes if the key is wrong. One of my clone in one of the many world, or myself may got the correct key and KNOW the guess is right. Profit! *Rick and Morty logic.
