Amazon Researcher Claims Quantum Algorithm Could Challenge PQC Foundations

An Amazon Web Services cryptographer has published a paper detailing a quantum algorithm that could potentially challenge the security of lattice-based post-quantum cryptography. While the work is preliminary, it marks a significant theoretical step in quantum computing research.
A preliminary paper from an Amazon Web Services cryptographer describes a polynomial-time quantum algorithm for a long-standing mathematical problem whose solution could have implications for lattice-based cryptography, the foundation of many post-quantum encryption systems proposed by the National Institute for Standards and Technology , among others.
