Our CEO Ali Kaafarani recently wrote an article for the World Economic Forum highlighting a growing reality for organizations worldwide: quantum security is no longer a distant concern, it is becoming an immediate business and cybersecurity priority.
The piece explores how the threat posed by quantum computing extends beyond future scenarios, particularly through the growing concern around “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks, where encrypted data collected today could be decrypted in the future once quantum capabilities mature.
The article also reinforces that transitioning to post-quantum cryptography will not be a simple upgrade. For industries operating long-life infrastructure including telecoms, critical infrastructure, healthcare, automotive, financial services, and government systems, migration will require significant long-term planning, cryptographic agility, and organiz ational readiness.
With NIST’s post-quantum standards now published and regulatory discussions accelerating globally, the conversation is rapidly shifting from theoretical research to board-level risk management and operational strategy.
It’s a strong reminder that organisations preparing early for the quantum transition will be far better positioned to manage risk, maintain trust, and future-proof their infrastructure.
