Apple iMessage will soon protect users for quantum attacks: Here's how
Apple is a company which is known for the privacy and security of its users. Now the company is all set to further enhance the security of its popular messaging app, iMessage, from the future threats. With the roll out of the iOS 17.4 update, iMessage will get a new encryption protocol called PQ3. This protocol is designed to withstand highly sophisticated attacks including those from the future quantum computers.
“Today we are announcing the most significant cryptographic security upgrade in iMessage history with the introduction of PQ3, a groundbreaking post-quantum cryptographic protocol that advances the state of the art of end-to-end secure messaging,” Apple said in a blog post.
