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.
Key claims in source B

- Prior to the signing, White House Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy Michael Kratsios said that the first executive order will be called "Ushering in the Next Frontier of Quantum Innovation.""It cal…
- The official also said a quantum-related executive order signed under the Biden administration will remain in effect, but the official differentiated today's orders by emphasizing the accelerated timeline.
- The second executive order will "accelerate the migration to post-quantum [cryptography] to 2031," which Kratsios says will not only bolster and innovate cybersecurity." Together, these policies will drive transformatio…

Source B · False dilemma
Those bits are oriented as either ones or zeroes, indicating on/off switches that make up the basic inputs of any task performed by a computer.
Possible false dilemma: the issue is presented as limited options while additional alternatives may exist.
