Quantum
Learn about quantum technologies and related cyber security risks so you can protect your systems and data from emerging threats.
Organisations need to understand quantum-related risks and prepare for post-quantum cryptography (PQC). PQC includes cryptographic algorithms that are designed to remain secure against attacks from both classical and quantum computers. Planning ahead is crucial, as moving to PQC across complex information technology environments could take years.
You can use the LATICE framework to manage the transition to PQC:
- Locate and record all uses of traditional asymmetric cryptography.
- Assess the value and sensitivity of the systems and data it protects.
- Triage and prioritise systems for transition.
- Implement post-quantum cryptographic algorithms throughout systems.
- Communicate with vendors and stakeholders, and educate and train relevant stakeholders on the PQC transition.
