Have you ever sat in traffic and cursed the town planners? For years, you may have watched as the town approved new subdivisions and stores along the roads you drive often. And you wondered when they would add a new lane, extend a road or install a new stoplight. But think about this: If you’re skipping over news articles about quantum computing and post-quantum cryptography, you’re doing the same thing in relation to your business that town planners seem to do relative to new construction — waiting for the negative impacts before fixing the issue.
Much (if not most) of the time, these changes only happen after negative impacts come in force. People will go to council meetings over accidents and stop-and-go traffic. Have you ever wondered why town planners don’t proactively improve the roads before the new construction is finished? I’ve never understood why they wait.
But instead of clogged roads, your business or agency is more likely to face data breaches and cyberattacks. In turn, these can cause financial loss, reputation damage and business disruption.
For decades, the tech industry has held up encryption as the key to keeping your data secure. With more companies changing the way they work in the pandemic, data security has become even more important. Not only do we have more transactions performed online now, but a wider range of tasks are also now online.
Quantum Computing: A Different Algorithm
At the same time the volume and type of data increased online, researchers have been focusing on developing and perfecting quantum computing. It’s widely known that quantum computing is faster and ..
