Preparation for the post-quantum cryptography age underway in Finland as well

In 1994, American mathematician Peter Shor devised an algorithm for quantum computers that can effectively factor large integers. The development of quantum computers is currently proceeding at a rapid pace, and once a sufficiently powerful quantum computer is built, Shor's algorithm could be used to break contemporary public-key cryptography schemes, which are essential for the secure operation of the internet, among other things.
