Quantum-safe upgrades aren’t just for your encryption appliances – they’re for every system that touches crypto. This article drives home that point: nearly every enterprise system uses cryptography so almost everything will need some update for the quantum era postquantum.com/post-quantum...

The big picture: telecom execs need to see PQC migration as a strategic resilience initiative, not just a tech upgrade. It will touch everything – standards, supply chain, devices, cloud, edge. Coordination is key... #QuantumReadiness postquantum.com/post-quantum...

The first generation of quantum code-breakers won’t be cheap to run: each RSA-2048 crack could consume tens of MWh of energy. That means only high-value targets would be worth the effort initially... #QuantumResilience postquantum.com/post-quantum...

TL;DR from this deep-dive: transparency is security. A CBOM brings cryptography out of the shadows. Expect CBOMs to become as routine as SBOMs in audits. It’s a bit more work now for a lot more peace of mind later. #PQC #CryptoAgility postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Why 2030 for Q-Day? 3 pieces of recent news: IBM plans ~200 logical qubits by 2029, Gidney’s 2025 paper showed ~1300 logical qubits running 1 week could factor RSA-2048, and Oxford set a record for low error rates. Put together, that makes a 2030 plausible. postquantum.com/post-quantum...

CBOM (Cryptography Bill of Materials) is the new buzzword. Think SBOM but for encryption. To migrate to #PQC, you first need a map of every place cryptography lives in your org. This article shows how various tools help assemble that map. #CryptoAgility postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Don’t rely on manual, interview-based cryptographic inventories – they’re usually incomplete and give a false sense of security. This article argues that a half-baked inventory is dangerous postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Remember late 2022 when headlines screamed a Chinese research team had a new quantum algorithm that might break RSA-2048 with just 372 qubits? This article recounts that saga and current state. Spoiler: the hype got ahead of reality. postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Why 2030 for Q-Day? Three pieces of recent news: IBM plans ~200 logical qubits by 2029, Gidney’s 2025 paper showed ~1300 logical qubits could factor RSA-2048, and Oxford set a record for low error rates. Put together, that makes a 2030 quantum code-breaker plausible. postquantum.com/post-quantum...

No, migrating to #PQC isn’t a “one-click” software patch. In reality, it’s a years-long effort: you need to map all your crypto usage, replace algorithms across apps, devices, and protocols, and do tons of testing. There’s no “easy” button to become #QuantumResilient. postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Reality check: today’s quantum hardware is small and noisy, so QML is largely experimental. The guide acknowledges limitations and suggests near-term hybrid approaches. This is a comprehensive resource to get up to speed on quantum + ML. #QuantumAI postquantum.com/quantum-ai/q...

Quantum tech = strategic autonomy for Europe. This strategy isn’t just science and industry – it’s about sovereignty. By investing in dual-use quantum and building a homegrown talent pool, the EU aims to control its destiny postquantum.com/industry-new...

Quantum tech = the new space race. Governments have poured $40B+ into quantum R&D  because whoever leads in quantum computing can potentially decrypt other nations’ secrets and dominate future tech industries. This article sums up how major powers approach it. postquantum.com/quantum-comp...

Regulators now often require a cryptographic inventory as the first step to #QuantumResilience. The article discusses layering multiple discovery methods postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Boards: quantum risk isn’t just a tech problem – it’s a governance issue. Regulators increasingly hold boards accountable for cyber risks, and that extends to quantum threats. A future quantum breach could lead to major liability. #QuantumResilience postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Quantum computers harness superposition, entanglement, and interference – basically doing many calculations at once and interfering paths to amplify correct answers. Not every problem is a good fit, but for certain problems the speedups are astronomical postquantum.com/quantum-comp...

Quantum computing is being called the master key that could unlock nearly all of today’s encrypted data. In other words, a sufficiently powerful quantum computer poses a universal cyber threat more serious than anything before. Boards and CEOs can’t afford to ignore postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Bottom line: has anyone come close to cracking RSA-2048 with quantum? Not really – it’s still a theoretical threat. The “48-bit factoring” hype taught us that claims of “RSA broken” will surface periodically and we need to critically evaluate them. postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Canada’s PQC roadmap means business: by 2026 every federal agency must inventory its crypto use and designate a lead for the transition. Annual progress reports will be mandated. Essentially, they’re baking #QuantumReadiness accountability into government operations. postquantum.com/industry-new...

Why do we suddenly need CBOMs? Because you can’t swap in quantum-safe algorithms if you don’t know what you have. Governments are now mandating agencies to inventory their cryptography. CBOMs make that practical by formalizing the process. This article explains... postquantum.com/post-quantum...

From tiny two-level defects in chip materials to background radiation from space, qubits have many ways to lose info. The article explains how engineers mitigate some of these. To scale quantum computers, we must tackle all these sources of error. postquantum.com/quantum-comp...

Could quantum computers supercharge AI? Enter Quantum Machine Learning (QML). The idea: qubits can explore huge state spaces that classical bits can’t, potentially finding new patterns in data. It’s not guaranteed magic, but the promise is there. postquantum.com/quantum-ai/q...

Coding a quantum computer isn’t like coding a classical one. This intro for developers explains the paradigm shift. It requires a mindset of linear algebra and quantum logic, not just loops and ifs. #QuantumProgramming postquantum.com/quantum-comp...

The good news: Q-Day isn’t the end of the world if we’ve prepared. In the aftermath, we’ll see an accelerated rollout of PQC, emergency patches to protocols, and likely new regulations enforcing crypto standards. The article stresses that we should be acting now postquantum.com/post-quantum...

The Q-Day aftermath likely unfolds in phases: first, stealthy chaos. The article calls it a “slow-burn chaos” rather than instant collapse. Eventually, once we realize what’s happening, there’ll be a frantic scramble to deploy fixes (PQC everywhere). #QuantumThreat postquantum.com/post-quantum...

For every tech hype cycle, there’s a chorus of skeptics saying “it’ll never work” – quantum computing is no exception. Quantum contrarians argue that it’s all overhyped. Contrarian voices can be healthy, but extreme pessimism often looks silly in hindsight. postquantum.com/quantum-comp...

The takeaway: we need contrarians to challenge wild claims in quantum tech (they keep us honest), but we should guard against contrarian fallacies. Technological progress often takes longer than the hype suggests, but that doesn’t mean it won’t happen at all. postquantum.com/quantum-comp...

Myth: It’s “too early” for quantum startups; better to wait until the science is settled. Reality: Being early is the opportunity. We’re at inflection for quantum. Early movers are already finding niche markets. postquantum.com/quantum-comm...

Is quantum computing overhyped? Yes and no. I acknowledge the hype but also warns against the “it’s all a scam” vibe. Many contrarian arguments ignore the steady, hard-won progress labs are making. Healthy skepticism is fine, but outright cynicism might age badly postquantum.com/quantum-comp...

CISOs: what if preparing for tomorrow’s quantum threats could help you solve today’s security problems and get a bigger budget? It can. Framing #QuantumReadiness as urgent gets boards’ attention  – which can unlock funding. #PQC postquantum.com/post-quantum...

A startling stat: 62% of security pros worry about quantum attacks, but only 5% say it’s a high priority at their org . Meanwhile regulators are setting PQC deadlines. CISOs who get ahead of this curve can turn compliance lemons into budget lemonade. postquantum.com/post-quantum...

From IBM’s “Crypto Explorer + Advisor + Remediator” suite (which creates a detailed Cryptography Bill of Materials) to Keyfactor’s crypto-agility platform & open-source scanners – there’s no one-size-fits-all for crypto inventory. This guide breaks down each vendor. postquantum.com/post-quantum...

The biggest bottleneck in the quantum revolution? People. There’s only about 1 qualified candidate for every 3 quantum job openings. Over half of quantum jobs are going unfilled. Without a #QuantumLiterate workforce, even billion-dollar investments won’t pay off. postquantum.com/quantum-comm...

The article breaks down core QML algorithms: Quantum SVMs, Quantum Neural Networks, QGANs, Quantum Boltzmann Machines. It also doesn’t shy away from reality. Balanced view for ML folks curious about quantum computing.

After skepticism around Microsoft’s topological qubits, new peer-reviewed data is in. Majorana-1’s latest results show it can reliably do the two fundamental qubit operations (bit-flip & phase checks). This goes a long way to silence the doubters. #QuantumComputing postquantum.com/industry-new...

NIST has chosen the first batch of quantum-resistant algorithms for standardization. This article gives a technical but digestible breakdown of how each works, from math foundations to key generation to performance. #PQC postquantum.com/post-quantum...

“Whoever develops quantum computing first will have palpable military advantages” – that quote sums it up. The allure of being able to crack any encryption has nations racing to both build quantum computers and also upgrade their own crypto (#PQC) before someone else postquantum.com/quantum-comp...

TL;DR: We won’t get million-qubit quantum computers by brute force – we get them by error correction, turning thousands of physical qubits into a few hundred stable logical qubits. This piece highlights that breakthrough moment where more qubits = less error #Quantum postquantum.com/quantum-comp...

Upgrading to quantum-safe encryption will be the biggest digital overhaul in history – bigger than Y2K – because every device and system using crypto must be discovered and upgraded. From servers to that smart thermostat in HQ, nothing is exempt. postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Unlike Y2K, Q-Day (the day quantum computers break our crypto) won’t be a dramatic midnight event. This article paints the scenario: the morning after Q-Day. It’s a quiet crisis: no immediate crashes, but a fundamental pillar of digital trust is gone. #QuantumSecurity postquantum.com/post-quantum...

CISOs: what if preparing for tomorrow’s quantum threats could help you solve today’s security problems and get a bigger budget? It can. Framing #QuantumReadiness as urgent gets boards’ attention  – which can unlock funding for overdue fixes... #PQC postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Fun fact from this piece: China spends ~4× more public money on quantum than the US, but the US has ~10× more quantum startups. It’s state labs vs. Silicon Valley in a way. EU is somewhere in between, matching China in total public spend but spread across countries postquantum.com/quantum-comm...

A startling stat: 62% of security pros worry about quantum attacks, but only 5% say it’s a high priority at their org. Meanwhile regulators are setting PQC deadlines (2026-2030). CISOs who get ahead of this curve can turn compliance lemons into budget lemonade. postquantum.com/post-quantum...

The race for quantum advantage is as much about brains as qubits. Companies and governments are scrambling to attract and train quantum specialists. This article highlights creative solutions: from new programs mixing physics & CS, to industry-academic alliances.. postquantum.com/quantum-comm...

RSA-2048 broken by 2030? I predict Q-Day will hit around 2030. Why? 3 breakthroughs: IBM’s roadmap to ~1000 logical qubits by 2030, a new algorithm needing ~1000 logical qubits + 1 week to crack RSA-2048, and record error-correction progress reducing qubit overhead postquantum.com/post-quantum...

The article lists categories: OSes, business apps, financial systems, comms platforms, storage systems, network security, IAM, endpoints, etc. – all heavily reliant on cryptography. The message: leave no stone unturned. postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Don’t assume people know everywhere crypto is used. Crypto often runs invisibly in the background, so even developers and system owners might not realize all the crypto operations happening. This piece lists flaws of manual cryptographic inventories. #PQC postquantum.com/post-quantum...

Why is building a stable #QuantumComputer so hard? Noise is everywhere. Superconducting circuits get jittery, ion traps face stray gas collisions and vibrations, photonic qubits lose photons, etc. This piece breaks down each noise source... postquantum.com/quantum-comp...

When the “central bank of central banks” speaks, everyone listens. BIS’s new roadmap frames #Quantum threats as a systemic financial risk. It urges regulators and banks to coordinate on post-quantum encryption. Translation: get #QuantumResilient or get left behind. postquantum.com/industry-new...

Quantum hacking isn’t just about qubits – it’s about megawatts. Keeping a quantum computer at cryogenic temps and running Shor’s algorithm will gulp down colossal power... #QuantumSecurity postquantum.com/post-quantum...
