HOT TOPIC ALERT!
Is it possible to resist future attacks by quantum computers?
Vulnerability of Current Encryption
Quantum computers are expected to break encryption with relative
ease and vast speed, rendering current encryption obsolete.
Data Security Risk
Sensitive data like medical records, intellectual property, financial transactions, government secrets, personal information, and other sensitive data could be compromised. This could lead to massive data breaches, identity theft, and high recovery costs.
"Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" Attacks
Criminal organizations and individual bad actors can already intercept and store encrypted data NOW, waiting for the development of powerful quantum computers to decrypt it later — this poses a significant long-term threat.

HOT OFF THE PRESS!
On August 13, 2024, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST, part of the US Department of Commerce) approved three Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) for post-quantum cryptography.
These standards specify key establishment and digital signature schemes that are designed to resist future attacks by quantum computers, which threaten the security of current standards. CLICK HERE
They secure a wide range of electronic information, from confidential email messages, to government communications, to e-commerce transactions that propel the modern economy.
Protect your organization sooner than later.
NIST is encouraging computer system administrators to begin
transitioning to the new standards as soon as possible.
