Australia’s chief cyber security agency has decided local orgs should stop using the tech that forms the current cryptographic foundation of the internet by the year 2030 – years before other nations plan to do so – over fears that advances in quantum computing could render it insecure.
The proposal deprecates certain standards by 2030 – among them the RSA algorithm – and disallows them by 2035.
I wish Australia were this forward-thinking in other respects (like banning ICE vehicles), but this is pretty cool. UQ is one of the world’s leading research institutions in quantum computing so it does make sense.
We where thos forward thinking with the internet as a whole then the liberal party fucked it to the moon and back.
With respect, nah, not really. I mean, yeah the LNP fucked us over royally with the NBN. But even the original NBN was mostly a plan to catch up with what the rest of the developed world already had. It wasn’t an example of us leading the world.
Liberals: “You dont need fiber to the premises, OUR version will be cheaper and quicker.”
Narrator: it was not cheaper, or completed earlier and the speeds are worse.Libs: “also we bought a shitload of fucked copper back off Telstra, who then laughed all the way to the bank”
Im still waiting on my fibre to the fucking node. Getting starlink cos fuck u elon is doing a better job than u can.
They’re about to do the same with the energy grid!
