Description
Cryptographic algorithms in secure encryption provide protection against present threats. In the face of emerging quantum computers, standards communities are defining replacement candidates. But networks need our attention now to avoid attack later when a practical quantum computer is available. Symmetrical key management and a high-quality key are paramount in keeping networks safe today and into the future. Grover’s algorithm shows that AES-256 and symmetrical key management provide excellent protection against quantum attack.
This presentation will describe the quantum threat, efforts to develop post-quantum ciphers and provide a view of practical protection options, ready for deployment now.
