Looking forward to this 𝐈𝐁𝐌 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐦 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐨𝐮𝐭 session with NCS Group at 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐞 on 15 August. Most of the critical systems we use today (e.g. Internet, digital signature, financial systems, critical infrastructure, etc) have very long tails... meaning that they were built historically and will continue to function for the next 10 or 15 years. Unless these systems are built with quantum safe cryptography, we are just kicking the problem down the road because one day when a powerful enough quantum computer is available, these systems will immediately become unsafe and vulnerable to quantum attacks. One of the tactics that cyber criminals use is what we call "Harvest now and decrypt later", where confidential information using non quantum-safe technology is being illegally collected, stored somewhere and then later be manipulated and unravelled when a powerful enough quantum computer is available. The message to us is very clear - it is not a time to panic, but certainly now is the right time to understand quantum safe and start planning for post quantum cryptography.

IBM's Lory Piccirilli Thorpe recently sat down with Dr. Hoon Wei Lim to chat about how NCS Group and IBM are collaborating to help clients prepare their quantum-safe readiness journey, including an understanding of current and future cryptographic assets, addressing cybersecurity risks associated with cryptographically relevant quantum computing and future-proofing the management of their cryptography. At the upcoming IBM Think Singapore event on 15 August 2024, NCS will be an invited speaker for an IBM Quantum Technology Breakout, sharing their expert perspectives on how enterprises can harness this critical technology to mitigate cybersecurity risks.
