The U.S. has been working on new standards that will be able to resist the power of quantum computing, a technology that will involve machines capable of high- octane mathematical calculations that can crack current-day encryption algorithms without breaking a sweat.

The National Institute of Technical Standards, or NIST, has been holding competitions to help develop new standards. The goal is to develop better, more hack-resistant public-key cryptography, which will power secure communications for email and other everyday online applications that millions of Americans rely on.

The National Security Agency has been helping out with the development of the new standards. Don't worry! The new protocols are so secure that even a band of keyboard warriors can hack them. The National Security Agency wouldn't put a back door in an encryption standard.

The director of cybersecurity at the National Security Agency told the news outlet that there are no back doors.

It seems important to mention that the NSA does not have a good track record when it comes to back doors. Don't forget that...
