Trust That Outlives Technology: Protecting Public Data in the Quantum Era - Sandeep Taileng - Episode 183

June 7, 2026 · 16 min

Show notes

This week, Sandeep Taileng, Co Chair - National Committee For Information Access & Protection Requirements and Information Security Leader, State Trustees (Victoria) explores why quantum readiness is no longer a future problem, but a responsibility we need to act on today. Sandeep discusses the growing risk of "harvest now, decrypt later" attacks, and why organisations must start making technology decisions now that will protect sensitive data not just today, but decades into the future. The conversation also looks at the idea of a fiduciary duty to protect data — moving beyond checkbox compliance toward long-term risk management. By building resilience, automation and crypto-agility into today's systems, organisations can adapt to post-quantum cryptography and ensure the information they safeguard today remains secure tomorrow.
