Preparing Security Infrastructures for Quantum-Safe Encryption

As the reality of quantum computing draws closer, organizations must proactively address the potential risks it poses to existing encryption protocols. Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is emerging as a necessary defense, particularly in industries that manage long-lived data and high-value transactions, such as finance, healthcare, government, and telecom.

This brief outlines a strategic approach to preparing security infrastructures for PQC adoption. It highlights the importance of validating quantum-safe encryption algorithms—before they are deployed in production environments—to ensure resilience, performance, and seamless interoperability.
