Quantum computing has the potential to revolutionise various aspects of our work and daily lives by harnessing the power of quantum mechanics to deliver faster results and solve complex problems that classical computers cannot handle. This book is designed to address current and future legal issues to assist lawyers as quantum computing continues to be adopted more widely.
The book serves as a practical guide to help readers navigate the technology and its legal implications. It begins by explaining what quantum computing is and its practical significance, before delving into the legal ramifications of this technology. It covers existing legal frameworks related to the adoption and use of quantum computing in the contexts of national security and sanctions. Furthermore, it explores current and emerging legal issues in areas such as data protection, risks for businesses, and intellectual property. Finally, the authors offer some practical considerations for lawyers involved in litigation concerning quantum computers.
