RSAC 2023: Are You Prepared for the Advent of Quantum Computing?

According to many experts, quantum computing is poised to change the world in the not-too-distant future. It will enable data processing at unprecedented speeds and volumes, which in turn will enable life-changing technological advances. But it also threatens to undermine security because it will break our current understanding of cryptography, rendering today's cybersecurity efforts ineffective. That's why now is the time for organizations to begin planning how they will respond to the quickly approaching dawn of quantum computing.
