Expert Recommends: Prepare for PQC Right Now

Adversaries are stealing encrypted data now to decrypt later using quantum computers, requiring organizations to migrate to post-quantum cryptography immediately to protect long-term sensitive data.

Harvest Now, Decrypt Later: Preparing for the Quantum Hangover

Adversaries are currently stealing encrypted data through harvest-now, decrypt-later attacks, planning to decrypt it once quantum computing matures, making the quantum threat an immediate cybersecurity concern rather than a distant future problem.

NIST's Quantum Breakthrough: Single Photons Produced on a Chip

NIST has developed a chip that reliably emits a single photon on demand. This ability will improve the efficiency of QKD (quantum key distribution) as we prepare for the arrival of quantum computers. Quantum computers will upend current cryptology by using Shor's algorithm to rapidly negate the current public/private key secure encryption methods. This has largely been solved by NIST's post quantum cryptology (PQC) algorithms.
