Quantum Minute. China Breaks RSA Encryption. Sponsored by Applied Quantum.

A team in China has successfully broken RSA encryption using a D-Wave Advantage quantum computer, posing a significant threat to global data security. Earth.com explains that the researchers used a 22-bit RSA integer that had previously resisted attempts to break it, demonstrating the potential for quantum machines to tackle cryptographic problems. This breakthrough is concerning because RSA encryption is still widely used in many industries, including finance and government.
