> Quantum Computing by Hamish Earp

> The discovery of the observer principle in quantum mechanics presents
> the security industry with a unique and unprecedented ability to
> secure network communications. By using a fundamental law of quantum
> physics network designers can assure any attempt to decipher network
> data will result in a corrupt communication. Furthermore the
> computational power of this discovery when coupled with Shor's
> algorithm presents a real problem to all forms of current encryption
> and ultimately leads the way to a new paradigm of thinking in computer
> security. This talk aims to explain these fundamental principles in an
> easy to understand manor and goes on to discuss the problems
> manufacturers are having with the current implementation of this
> technology.
