Can a phone really impact the security of your business? Believe it or not, phones and other mobile devices can put your company at risk – think of the age-old adage: You are only as strong as your weakest link. Our phones themselves, along with other types of mobile devices (such as tablets), are not only at risk to mobile malware, but they are also prone to similar cybersecurity breaches that we see on computers. Why is that? For many, their mobile devices serve as an extension of their computers by aiding in checking emails, facilitating communication, and allowing access to business materials.

What are quantum computers? In essence, they use qubits rather than classical bits, creating a powerful device that can solve unique problems and parse a multitude of information. The computers themselves work with principles such as entanglements, and ultimately linked qubits that share information instantly without a concern for distance. While these computers are still in the early stages, and require a special set of conditions to operate, it is crucial that we are aware not only of the potential that these devices have, but also how they will impact cybersecurity structures. Throughout their development, quantum computing has raised questions about how we secure and encrypt our data.
