Security Experts Urge Immediate Transition to Post-Quantum Cryptography
At Infosecurity Europe, security leaders emphasized the urgent need for businesses to accelerate their transition plans to post-quantum cryptography (PQC). Rik Ferguson, VP of security intelligence at Forescout, highlighted the slow adoption of PQC, with only 8% of SSH servers worldwide supporting it. The countdown to cryptographically relevant quantum computers has begun, posing risks to encrypted data. Despite the potential disruption quantum computing could bring by 2030, many businesses have not prioritized PQC in their strategic plans.
