Quantum computing is poised to revolutionize how we understand medicine, chemistry, alternative fuels and more—and also to create cybersecurity risks for every institution across the world.
SFU's researchers are not only working to build commercially viable quantum computers, but working to create the networks, programs and building blocks that will mitigate risk and create real impact for people and communities.
