Significant Theoretical Advancement in Factoring 2048 Bit RSA Integers

Chart Showing the Continued Improvement in the Estimated Number of Physical QubitsRequired to Factor a 2048 Bit RSA Integer In 2019, co-authors Craig Gidney and Martin Ekerå published a technical paper titled How to factor 2048 bit RSA integers in 8 hours using 20 million noisy qubits. It describes a potential approach based upon Shor’s […]
