Google is preparing for the quantum era, a turning point in digital security, with a 2029 timeline for post-quantum cryptography (PQC) migration. Security professionals warn that current encryption could be broken by large-scale quantum computers in the coming years. This risk is already relevant due to store-now-decrypt-later attacks. Google says organizations should adopt NIST-developed PQC standards before large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers become a reality. “That’s why we’ve adjusted our threat model to prioritize PQC migration … More → The post Google races to secure encryption before quantum threats arrive appeared first on Help Net Security.
