Bringing quantum computers online and to market could one day enable advances in medical research, drug discovery, and other applications.

To date, no known quantum algorithm can break through its defenses. But these schemes are way too computationally intense for<strong> IoT<\/strong> devices, which can only spare enough energy for simple data processing.
