– A world without encryption: Quantum threats to cybersecurity | SandboxAQ
Encryption is the unseen process enabling today’s digital world, securing everything from our online purchases to our private healthcare records from increasing cyber threats. And yet, today’s common encryption methods such as RSA will no longer be effective when quantum computers arrive. In this video, SandboxAQ and Accenture lay out an easy-to-understand guide to encryption, the quantum threat, and how organizations can begin preparing for the necessary transition to post-quantum cryptography (PQC).
While fault-tolerant quantum computers are still some years away, the transition to this new cryptographic paradigm will be complex and time-consuming. What’s more, in current SNDL attacks, hackers are stealing sensitive data to store until a quantum computer can decrypt it.
This video breaks down the key steps that organizations need to take to start planning and migrating their IT architecture to PQC. Don’t miss this look at the cybersecurity challenge of our time.
