Post-Quantum Cryptography Basics

Описание: Richmond Ang, Senior Consultant, Storage Security Product Management and Michael Wilke, Senior Consultant Product Marketing of Dell Technologies break down the essentials of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and why it belongs on your radar today. Quantum computing is advancing fast, and it threatens to break the classic encryption that protects data everywhere. Richmond and Michael explain the risks in plain terms, including "harvest now, decrypt later," where attackers store your encrypted data now to unlock it once quantum computers are ready. You'll also learn why cryptographic agility, the ability to swap in new algorithms without re-engineering your systems, is so important, and you'll walk away with practical steps to start preparing: build visibility into where cryptography lives across your environment, prioritize your most sensitive data, and plan your migration to quantum-resistant standards. The message is clear and encouraging, as Richmond eloquently summarized “PQC is a planning problem, not a panic problem.”
