AES-128 Will Survive Cryptographically Relevant Quantum Computers - PC Perspective

A new analysis argues that quantum computers are unlikely to make AES-128 easy to crack, despite earlier fears.

Splitting the search across multiple quantum computers is said not to deliver the dramatic speedup some had predicted.

As a result, AES-128 is still considered secure for now.

The discussion helps clarify common concerns about Grover’s algorithm and the quantum threat to symmetric encryption.
