AI en quantum computing: twee revoluties

Kunstmatige intelligentie en quantum computing behoren beiden tot de technologieën die de toekomst vormgeven. Toch bevinden ze zich vandaag in totaal verschillende fasen van ontwikkeling. Waar AI inmiddels is uitgegroeid van een specialistisch onderzoeksveld tot een dagelijkse tool voor honderden miljoenen mensen, blijft quantum computing grotendeels beperkt tot onderzoekscentra en gespecialiseerde laboratoria.

Quantum computing: zowel kracht als dreiging

De komst van de quantumcomputer is onvermijdelijk en de ontwikkeling accelereert disruptief snel. Dit brengt een fascinerende paradox met zich mee: het opent deuren naar revolutionaire innovaties, maar zet tegelijkertijd de veiligheid van onze wereldwijde data op scherp. Gelukkig bouwt Europa inmiddels hard aan haar eigen digitale autonomie om grip te houden op deze revolutie.Waar staan we vandaag de dag en wat zijn de belangrijkste facetten van deze technologie? In dit artikel praten we je in vogelvlucht bij over de achtergrond, de risico’s en de actuele stand van zaken.

Europese digitale autonomie: durf te kiezen

Van de week was ik op de CyberSec beurs in de Brusselse Expo. Een art-deco gebouw uitkijkend op het Atomium. Ook hier werd, net als een paar kilometer verderop in het Europees parlement, veel gesproken over digitale autonomie.

The Lock Icon appeared. Now read the fine print.

RCS messaging just gained cross-platform end-to-end encryption between iPhone and Android. We unpack what the announcement actually means technically, and why "encrypted" still isn't enough for regulated enterprise environments.

Your encryption might be lying to you: Invisible Salamanders and Partitioning Oracles

Most encryption schemes used today (AES-GCM, ChaCha20/Poly1305) don't guarantee that a ciphertext can only decrypt to one plaintext under one key. Invisible Salamanders and Partitioning Oracle attacks exploit this gap to deceive recipients and recover secrets. We explain how these attacks work, why they matter for any system handling encrypted data across multiple parties, and how Databeamer's encryption layer addresses them.

Zero-knowledge encryption: why it matters

We utilize End-to-End Encryption to ensure your data is secure during transit and at rest. This is achieved via Client-Side Encryption, which guarantees a Zero-Knowledge architecture where we never possess your keys. This article briefly explains Zero-Knowledge Encryption and why it matters if you value your data privacy.
