The advent of quantum computing presents a significant threat to current cryptographic standards potentially rendering sensitive data vulnerable to breaches. A quantum safety roadmap is imperative to proactively address this emerging risk. By outlining a strategic plan for transitioning to quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms and protocols organizations can safeguard their digital assets and maintain operational resilience in the face of quantum advancements.
A quantum safety roadmap serves as a critical tool for C-suite executives, CISOs, and CTOs to understand the potential impact of quantum computing on their organization, assess their current security posture and prioritize necessary actions. By developing a comprehensive roadmap organizations can allocate resources effectively, mitigate risks, and ensure a smooth transition to a quantum-safe future.
“There are not too many milestone events in our career where major global regulatory and compliance mandates (Basel Compliance, Y2K) intersect with major cross industry digital transformation initiatives such as legacy and core systems modernization and provide a cost avoidance opportunity.
The global mandate to migrate to Post Quantum Encryption starting now is an opportunity to allocate budget for core systems modernization based on a compliance mandate that cannot be avoided.”

Green encryption algorithms offer a compelling solution for organizations seeking to enhance data security while minimizing their environmental impact. Optimizing cryptographic operations for energy efficiency reduces computational overhead, improving system performance and reducing latency leading to cost savings and operational efficiency.
From high-throughput data centers to resource-constrained IoT devices green encryption innovation provides a level of cyber security on a par with or beyond industry standards like AES.
