Cybersecurity and Quantum Computing: A Readiness Guide (with Palo Alto Networks) | CXOTalk #904
Notes de l’épisode
Nation-states are already harvesting your encrypted data, betting they'll crack it when quantum computers mature. It's happening now.
In CXOTalk episode 904, Anand Oswal, Executive Vice President of Network Security at Palo Alto Networks, explains what business leaders need to understand about quantum security and how to address it. The impact of quantum computing on cybersecurity will be huge.
Key timelines discussed:
-- Cryptographically relevant quantum computers expected by end of this decade
-- RSA and ECC algorithms deprecated by 2030, disallowed by 2035
-- Enterprise cryptographic migrations typically take 5-10 years
