For years, we have been talking about the promise of quantum computing and its ability to break current encryption. The concept of “harvest now and decrypt later” is the reason why we need to solve for “quantum resistant” cryptography today. The good news is that we now have PQC available, but the challenge is that the problem set might be more than you expected. In this week’s session, we will be discussing PQC with notable subject matter experts in this field. They will help us understand what we need to know as cybersecurity professionals.
