The question arises whether AES 256, a widely used encryption standard, can be cracked by quantum computers. While there have been claims of successful attacks on AES 256 using side-channel attacks, these do not directly relate to quantum computing. Quantum computers, with their unique computing capabilities, potentially pose a threat to certain encryption algorithms, but current research does not indicate that AES 256 has been cracked by quantum means.
