Quantum computing is very close. Most conservative estimates say by the end of this decade, easy.

Most modern security is based around very good cryptographic science, but for a supercomputer, even complex passwords could be cracked in less than a day. For ciphers under AES128, most modern, somewhat common, security configurations are based on crypto from 2012.

If quantum computing is achieved near term, those systems could be breached in days if not hours. This is to jumpstart government spending on IT cyber services. It works very well under the Dems.

Probably that the Chinese are leaps and bounds ahead of us in quantum computing technology because they employ actual computer scientists to do research instead of woke social justice warriors.
