NIST Will Fire The 'Starting Gun' In The Race To Quantum Encryption
Nextgov, Wednesday, July 10th, 2024
Experts in the public and private sectors highlighted how to proactively transition networks to quantum-resilient standards.
As the National Institute of Standards and Technology is slated to soon debut the first round of encryption algorithms it has deemed suited for the potential arrival of a viable quantum computer, experts have advice for organizations: know your code.
The need for strong cryptographic governance ahead of migrating digital networks to a post-quantum standard will be a major component to updated cybersecurity best practices, as both public and private sectors begin to reconcile their network security with new algorithmic needs.
