Why experts are warning businesses to prepare for quantum now – or face critical cyber risks when it arrives
Quantum computing is a technology that has repeatedly been hyped as around the corner, despite many being unable to pinpoint exactly when it will materialize. While its unknown arrival date has allowed CISOs to kick the can down the road, experts have declared that there is limited time to get a quantum resilience strategy in place. Speaking to ITPro, Colin…

Chinese researchers break RSA encryption with a quantum computer
“Many cryptographic algorithms that enterprises rely on today, such as RSA and ECC, are based on mathematical problems that are computationally difficult for classical computers to solve efficiently,” said Prabhjyot Kaur, senior analyst at Everest Group. “However, the advent of quantum computing threatens the security of these algorithms. The need for robust quantum-safe or post-quantum cryptographic solutions becomes increasingly evident…
