The Emotet malware is now being leveraged by ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) groups, including Quantum and BlackCat, after Conti’s official retirement from the threat landscape this year. Emotet started off as a banking trojan in 2014, but updates added to it over time have transformed the malware into a highly potent threat that’s capable of downloading other […]
Quantum computing is a promising field but not much progress has been made until now. The reason behind this is the unstable nature of qubits – the basic unit of quantum computing. To overcome this bottleneck, researchers from Purdue University have built a transistor-like gate or a quantum version of a transistor using Qudits. While […]
We know that the rule “nothing lasts forever” holds true for everything. But the world of quantum particles doesn’t always seem to follow the rules. In the latest findings, scientists have observed that quasiparticles in quantum systems could be virtually immortal. These particles can regenerate themselves after they have decayed — and this can have […]
A new plug-in called “Looking Glass” discovered in each instance of the new Firefox Quantum browser. It was turned off by default, but users were still scared to see a plugin they hadn’t installed. When they examined to see what “Looking Glass” did, they found a vague and ominous release notes “MY REALITY IS JUST DIFFERENT […]
Quantum cryptography, considered to be one of the most complex and unbreakable methods of encryption, has been found to be vulnerable to attack, according to a major new study. Published in Science Advances, the paper concluded that energy-time entanglement, which underpins many forms of quantum cryptography, is exploitable. Researchers from Stockholm University and Linköping University […]
