IBM's test-tube quantum computer makes history

Scientists at IBM's Almaden Research Center performed the first demonstration of Shor's historic factoring algorithm, solving a simple version of the mathematical problem at the heart of many data-security systems. The team controlled a billion molecules in a test tube to become a seven-qubit quantum computer.

First demonstration of the ultimate computer security

Researchers successfully sent encrypted messages using quantum entanglement, a phenomenon that allows particles to be linked across distances. The demonstration marks a significant step towards creating secret codes that are virtually unbreakable and could eventually replace current data encryption methods.
