Post-Quantum Cryptography: IBM’s Plan to Protect Your Data Before It’s Too Late – With Lory Thorpe Of IBM Quantum
We get straight to the heart of post-quantum cryptography with IBM’s Lory Thorpe. Quantum computers are around the corner, and while they promise breakthroughs, they also threaten to blow open current encryption systems.
Lory explains how IBM is working with global institutions and industries to make our data “quantum-safe.” We discuss how organizations must start planning for “crypto agility”—preparing for threats we can’t fully predict.
Lory unpacks the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) efforts to standardize quantum-resistant algorithms, addressing concerns over the future of public key cryptography.
Now is the time to look at secure, long-term data protection to avoid a “harvest now, decrypt later” attack.
Learn the critical steps for building a post-quantum security plan, how quantum-safe protocols are evolving, and the push toward a quantum-safe future. Tune in to find out how IBM and industry leaders are taking on the challenge of post-quantum cryptography head-on.
Please enjoy the show.
