The advancements which are possible with quantum computing cannot be denied. On the flip side, is the effect quantum computing could have on an already growing threat to data protection and privacy against attacks.Read this analyst paper to understand the steps to take now to prepare for quantum-safe cryptography.Along with the opportunity come some major concerns. Perhaps the most pressing is the threat to current-day
security practices. Armed with quantum computing, malicious actors would be able to forge digital signatures and crack current levels of cryptography and encryption, including the public key infrastructure that’s now deeply embedded within the world’s IT systems. Worse, even encrypted data that is currently protected might bestored for later decryption once practical quantum computing emerges. This is a problem that can’t be deferred.The longer we wait, the more data we’ll be creating that is at risk
