Preparing for the quantum-safe encryption future

Security experts and scientists predict that quantum computers will one day be able to break commonly used encryption methods rendering email, secure banking, crypto currencies, and communications systems vulnerable to significant cybersecurity threats. Organizations, technology providers, and internet standards will therefore soon be required to transition to quantum-safe encryption. Upon this backdrop, NATO has begun testing quantum-safe solutions to investigate the feasibility and practicality of such technology for real-world implementations while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) launched a competition to identify and standardize quantum-safe encryption algorithms.
