π»πππππ πππππππππ πππ: Using my ACT model, Alignment, Clarity, and Transparency to help communicate the importance and urgency of preparing for a possible post-quantum world. To be clear, the quantum area is new. I like many am reading and learning, however, it’s so fring still far from enterprise or mainstream. However, this report I ran across from DigiCert & Ponemon Institute, may change how we think about this subject.
ππ₯π’π π§π¦ππ§π:
In reviewing the report on quantum computing preparedness, it is clear that both individuals and organizations are grappling with the uncertainties and pressures surrounding this emerging technology. The industry is still in its early nascent stages, and mainstream adoption may be several years away. Yet, at the same time, the urgency to address quantum-related security issues is there.
The report highlights diverse representation across sectors, showing the broad impact and concern:
β½22% in DevOps/DevSecOps
β½21% in identity and access management
β½14% in IT security/SEC ops
β½11% in networking
β½10% in risk and compliance
β½10% in R&D/engineering
ππ₯ππ«π’ππ²:
Key findings emphasize the need for a comprehensive strategy to prepare for post-quantum computing threats:
β½ Senior Leadership Understanding: Ensuring that leadership comprehends the significance of data security and allocates appropriate resources.
β½Cryptographic Key Visibility: Gaining visibility into the types and characteristics of cryptographic keys used.
β½Centralized Crypto-Management: Implementing a strategy that applies consistently across the enterprise.
β½Timely Updates: Keeping cryptographic algorithms and technologies current.
β½Adaptability: Enhancing the ability to adapt to changes in cryptography, including algorithm deprecation and quantum computing advancements.

As we all continue to research and develop in this area, it is crucial to acknowledge that there is an almost collective anxiety and a need for proactive measures. Organizations need to start thinking about this.
We do live in very interesting times…
