The Linux Foundation on Tuesday announced the Post-Quantum Cryptography Alliance, a new initiative intended to drive the adoption of post-quantum cryptography and respond to the possible security risks introduced via quantum computing. The Linux Foundation announced the alliance alongside a number of partners, including Google, IBM, Amazon Web Services and Cisco. Although the technology is […]
Cryptography is largely taken for granted – rarely evaluated or checked – a practice that could have devastating consequences for businesses as attack surfaces continue to expand, the cost of a data breach rises year-over-year, and the age of quantum computing nears, according to Quantum Xchange. Examining more than 200 terabytes of network traffic – […]
Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algorithms should be implemented to replace vulnerable traditional public key cryptography (PKC) algorithms to mitigate the threat of quantum computers.
A new tech consortium launched today with a mission to drive adoption of post-quantum cryptography (PQC). The PQC Coalition features Microsoft, IBM Quantum, MITRE, PQShield, SandboxAQ and the University of Waterloo among its founding members. The goal will be to improve uptake of PQC in commercial and open source technologies. Quantum computing represents an existential threat […]
