    1. Quizzma Team

      The correct answer is C. RSA encryption.

      Shor’s algorithm poses a threat to RSA encryption because it can efficiently factor large integers, which is the mathematical foundation of RSA. RSA relies on the difficulty of factoring products of two large prime numbers for its security. If a sufficiently powerful quantum computer were to run Shor’s algorithm, it could break RSA encryption and decrypt messages that are currently secure.
