Key claims and evidence
Key claims in source A
- President Trump wrote, 'The emergence of large-scale quantum computers, and especially if they fall into the hands of adversaries, will pose a significant threat to widely used cryptographic security systems.
- To address this situation, there is a pressing need to act with a view to the 'post-quantum cryptography' world that will emerge after the development of quantum cryptography.
- In light of these threats, we must take steps to strengthen cryptographic protections for our nation's sensitive data, critical infrastructure, and digital economy.'.
- Quantum information technology will bring transformative capabilities to drive American innovation, boost economic growth, create high-paying jobs and strengthen national security.
