Harvest Now, Decrypt Later: The Quest for Quantum-Resistant Crypto
About this episode
A fast-paced dive into how quantum computers threaten today’s encryption, why data today could be stored for decades, and how post-quantum cryptography—led by NIST’s 2024 standards and lattice-based schemes like Kyber, Delithium, and FISP-MCS—will reshape security. We explain hybrid encryption, real-world deployments (Apple PQ3, Google, Signal), and the massive global effort to migrate before Q-Day, highlighting the human ingenuity steering this engineering challenge.
