Quantum computing requires new levels of cybersecurity
Summary
If you’ve read any federal or state IT publications lately, then you should be familiar with the national cybersecurity concerns surrounding quantum computing. Examples of quantum computing already making a difference in technology, quantum.gov states, include GPS, magnetic resonance imaging, semiconductors and lasers for telecommunications. One of the major technology areas that may be affected with the projected power and speed of quantum computing is today’s encryption. The agency is working to standardize these algorithms as a last step to enabling organizations around the world to integrate them into their encryption infrastructure. By familiarizing yourself with quantum topics and the upcoming initiatives being proposed by NIST, you’ll be in better shape to position your offerings properly in the post-quantum information exchange world.
