“Q Day” is Near Financial Times Says

A new Financial Times article discusses the growing relevance of quantum computing and the urgent need for organizations to prepare for its potential impact. While the engineering challenges of building robust quantum computers are substantial, early prototypes are advancing quickly.  The US National Institute of Standards and Technology is set to release post-quantum encryption standards next year, signaling the need for data-rich entities to consider transitioning to a quantum computing environment.

The article also highlights the security threats posed by quantum computing.  Experts warn of “Q Day,” when a quantum computer could potentially crack widely used encryption systems, raising concerns for data security. Cybersecurity experts urge organizations to start thinking about adopting these standards to protect sensitive data. Mitigating the quantum threat has been at the forefront of Quantum Blockchain’s mission.
