No, RSA Encryption Isn’t Obsolete So Let’s Pump the Brakes on the Quantum Panic
Let’s pump the brakes on the quantum panic. Yes, these research findings are potentially a big deal for national security purposes.
NIST Announces Collaborating Vendors in the Migration to Post-Quantum Cryptography Project
Although NIST has announced their first selections of recommended algorithms to use for PQC, there is still a great amount of work to do.
NIST Algorithms Finally Bring Clarity and Certainty to the Business Community
The key takeaway from the recent NIST announcement is that the NIST algorithms finally bring clarity and certainty to the business community as they transition from algorithms such as RSA encryption to a new, tangible PQC framework.
Fixing Cryptography Before It Is Broken
Ever since Peter Shor showed how a quantum computer could factorize large numbers with exponential speedup, it has been known that quantum computers could become a threat to most cryptographic algorithms currently in use.
Securing Your Information in the Quantum Era
Quantum computing brings many benefits, but can’t be at the expense of data and system security. Internet traffic has seen a staggering, albeit expected increase since the pandemic. Everything from online gaming, shopping, learning, banking, and streaming services, have all experienced an immense boost in consumption, as society has sought to survive and escape reality.

The Quantum Revolution – Why You Should Pay Attention Now
If you haven’t heard about quantum computers yet, you may have been spending too much time in the server room, but you will be forgiven if you have missed the numerous recent news articles demonstrating the pace of advancements in quantum computing and just how close we are to them becoming reality. And the answer is ‘sooner than you think’. The technology giants we are familiar with today such as Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and IBM are investing hugely in this revolutionary technology, alongside an increasing multitude of innovative well-funded start-ups. But why bother?
U.S. Gov’t Agencies Should Consider Quantum Computing in Risk Assessments
Why quantum and data protection should go hand in hand Read More… + The era of quantum computing is fast approaching, and with it the greatest threat to cryptography at a scale never seen before. A quantum computer will be able to break RSA-2048, considered the gold standard for Public Key Encryption (PKE), the system […]
How Much Longer? Threat of Quantum Computing Still 5-10 Years Out
Fact check: Quantum computing may transform cybersecurity eventually – but not yet Then Intel Corp. CEO Brian Krzanich delivers a keynote address at CES 2018 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Quantum computing has made great progress in certain areas of technology, including chip development. But important to note actual quantum computers are not here. Not yet. […]
NIST: PQC Finalists to be Named ‘Roughly’ by the End of 2021
…but they (as well as we) still think quantum computing sufficient to break codes are 10 to 20 years off. That timeframe gets one day further with each new dawn. None the less, quantum is coming. Even if winter sets in first. Because Quantum is Coming. Qubit Post-quantum cryptographic standards to be finalized later this […]
Cybersecurity and Quantum Computing Demand Your Attention
The New World of Cybersecurity Points to note… + Like many emerging technologies, quantum computing brings both new opportunities and new challenges. While fully functioning quantum computers aren’t quite a reality yet, technology companies are starting to produce quantum computing offerings such as algorithms which can speed up business processes. Due to its speed, there […]
