Quantum computational supremacy may potentially endanger the current cryptographic protection methods. Although quantum computers are still far from a practical implementation in information processing and storage, they should not be overlooked in the context of cybersecurity. Quantum computers operate with qubits - units of information that are governed by the fundamental principles of quantum physics, such as quantum superposition of states and quantum coherence. In order to address the new challenge that quantum computers pose to cybersecurity, the very principles of their operation have to be understood and are overviewed in this contribution.

Information processing and storage underpins many biological processes of vital importance to organism survival. Like animals, plants also acquire, store and process environmental information relevant to their fitness, and this is particularly evident in their decision-making. The control of plant organ growth and timing of their developmental transitions are carefully orchestrated by the collective action of many connected computing agents, the cells, in what could be addressed as distributed computation. Here, we discuss some examples of biological information processing in plants, with special interest in the connection to formal computational models drawn from theoretical frameworks. Research into biological processes with a computational perspective may yield new insights and provide a general framework for information processing across different substrates.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Liquid brains, solid brains: How distributed cognitive architectures process information’.

Fast and efficient collection, processing and storage of huge amounts of information has become the main condition for the successful functioning of modern organizations, institutions and enterprises. The increasing rates of informatization of society increase the importance of computer technology in management processes. Using the capabilities of modern computing technology to automate the information processing process allows you to increase labor productivity, improve the efficiency of working with documents and speed up the exchange of information. At present, the concept of local information processing has become widespread. This allows you to organize the division of labor of personnel and automate the performance of their functions. To implement this idea, it is necessary to create workplaces for each level of management and each subject area, including remote ones. In the information economy, the successful promotion of an organization in the market is impossible without presenting the results of assessing the expected efficiency of automation. Evaluation of the effectiveness of the use of automated “virtual” workplaces is an ambiguous and multi-criteria process. Due to the huge variety of enterprises and the conditions in which they operate, options for automating activities, it is impossible to define standards, benchmarks. Each organization solves this issue independently, comparing with analogs.
