This powerful technology, while promising revolutionary benefits, poses a substantial risk to our currentcybersecurityinfrastructure.
More recent progress signals the approaching reality of quantum computers capable of breaking existing encryption methods.
The quantum threat

Quantum computers, however, can solve these problems exponentially faster, rendering traditional encryption obsolete.
Who should be concerned?
Predictions vary, with some experts estimating significant impacts within the next decade.
Of which, Quantum Knight is within the first group of FIPS 140.3 module validations.
These new NIST PQC algorithms are raw ciphers only, not a cryptographic system like CLEAR.
These efforts only attempt to upgrade their current broken distributed data ecosystem (i.e.
The road ahead
Transitioning to quantum-safe algorithms is not a straightforward process.
Organizations must act now, understanding the threat, preparing for the inevitable, and transitioning to quantum-safe practices.
While the timeline remains uncertain, the proactive steps taken today will safeguard the future against the quantum threat.
