"However, that power comes at a price; it will be child's play for quantum computers to overcome our current data security methods. As a result, your systems will be vulnerable to threats. We're not in the quantum commuting era just yet. Yet, planning for quantum computing now helps you protect your organization against future threats. Implementing quantum-resistant encryption now can keep your systems and data safe when quantum computing becomes prevalent."
"More organizations are working on improving quantum computing algorithms, and more funding has been flowing their way. Greater funding and a higher number of organizations working on quantum computing will undoubtedly speed up those advances. When quantum computing advances far enough to threaten current data security methods, all of your data will be at risk. The most at-risk data is information with long confidentiality lifetimes. Such information includes customer and employee names, birthdays, and Social Security numbers. That data doesn't change frequently, if at all."
Quantum computing will enable solving previously intractable problems and will render current encryption methods vulnerable, exposing systems to new threats. Implementing quantum-resistant encryption today can protect systems and data when quantum computers become prevalent. Certificate management tools are essential because outdated or weak cryptographic certificates increase vulnerability to quantum attacks. Data with long confidentiality lifetimes, such as customer and employee names, birthdays, and Social Security numbers, faces the highest risk. Attackers can steal data now and decrypt it later once quantum capabilities mature. Vendor ecosystems tend to wait for market demand signals, so proactive planning accelerates readiness.
