The Quantum Dragon worries about the future. Cryptographically relevant quantum computers are coming and, let’s face it, we’re not prepared for that. The market is splitting between early movers and laggards, and even the early movers need to consider how long their respective migrations will tak...
The accelerating development of quantum computing capabilities is forcing industries to confront the imminent threat to current cryptographic infrastructure, necessitating immediate planning for post-quantum migration.
Failure to address post-quantum migration poses a severe national security and economic risk, as existing data and communications could be compromised by future quantum computers.
The urgency around post-quantum cryptography is increasing, driving a clear market split between proactive and reactive organizations, with significant investment and strategic shifts required.
