Why Quantum Security Matters

Quantum computing threatens to break traditional cryptographic systems. This guide outlines practical steps for implementing post-quantum security protocols that protect against both classical and quantum attacks.

Quantum threats can break RSA/ECC encryption in under 100 seconds by 2030

Challenge: Traditional encryption algorithms vulnerable to Shor's algorithm

Impact: Potential $1.3 trillion in global financial risk if not mitigated by 2028

Technical Solution Framework

Post-Quantum Algorithms Categories

  • Lattice-Based Cryptography
