Why do quantum computers pose a threat to governments? This week Technology Now starts a two part dive into quantum computing. In this first episode, we ask: how are governments preparing to mitigate the threat posed by a hypothetical quantum computer which could be invented. Ken Rich, Federal CTO at HPE tells us more.

This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week, hosts Michael Bird and Aubrey Lovell look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations.
