Quantum Computing and Cybersecurity Quiz

What makes quantum computers a threat to cybersecurity?

• They can overheat and crash networks

• They can break traditional encryption much faster

• They create stronger encryption methods

• They only affect government systems

Which cryptographic algorithm is considered vulnerable to quantum attacks?

• RSA

• Enigma

• Blowfish

• Colossus

What is the main goal of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC)?

• To speed up traditional encryption algorithms

• To develop encryption that quantum computers cannot break

• To improve blockchain security only

• To replace all classical encryption immediately

Which organization is leading the standardization of post-quantum cryptographic algorithms?

• IEEE

• ISO

• NIST

• IETF

If a quantum computer with enough power is built today, what would be the immediate impact on cybersecurity?

• All digital certificates would expire instantly

• All encrypted data protected by Public Key Cryptography like RSA could be decrypted

• Quantum computers would take over cloud computing

• Only government data would be affected
