Ed Gerck might have just cracked RSA 2048. What does it mean?
A recent news article(Researcher Claims to Crack RSA-2048 With Quantum Computer) claims that a researcher has cracked RSA-2048 encryption using a quantum computer. If this is true, it could have serious implications for the security of many online systems and applications.
RSA is a widely used encryption algorithm that relies on the difficulty of factoring large numbers. Quantum computers are able to factor large numbers much faster than classical computers, so they could potentially break RSA encryption.
If RSA-2048 encryption is cracked, it could lead to a number of security issues, including:

It is important to note that the claim that RSA-2048 encryption has been cracked has not been independently verified. However, the potential security implications are serious, so organizations should start thinking about how to mitigate the risks.
Here are some things that organizations can do to mitigate the risks of quantum computing:
Quantum computing is still in its early stages of development, but it has the potential to revolutionize the world of cryptography. Organizations should start thinking about how to mitigate the risks of quantum computing now to protect their data and systems in the future.
