ICYMI: National Security Threat You May Never Have Heard Of



Experts warn that quantum computing could render today's encryption protections obsolete, exposing everything from government secrets to banking data. China and Russia's projects are already in motion. Former U.S. Deputy National Security Advisor Anne Neuberger argues that the next global arms race won't be about missiles. It will be a battle for quantum supremacy. Neuberger joins Walter Isaacson to discuss the nature of quantum computing and what might be at stake.
