Q

What is light weight cryptography?

A

used for lower power devices, and constrained devices (low processing power). To have very strong encryption that doesn’t need a lot of processing power.

Q

What are quantum communications and computing?

A

These are still theoretical, and when this does become more common. there are encryption worries due to the ability to break that hardest.

A

Distributed public ledger keep, done by using a block transaction information stored in blocks, can be verified and a hash is applied with a time stamp, each block is added to create a chain, every transaction can be verified
