Signal Quantum decryption is already a stated concern of technology executives

Summary

KPMG points out that quantum computing brings new security threats alongside its potential benefits, most notably the ability to break existing encryption. These threats are already on the minds of technology executives rather than being a distant worry. Forty-one percent say they fear falling behind in preparing for quantum threats and in implementing post-quantum cryptography. HPE's Phil Mottram says people are already concerned about bad actors using quantum, and that the server products his company ships today have been prepared against such threats. The report advises organizations to identify what encryption they use, where and why, and to draw up a transition plan for post-quantum cryptography.
