EP 24 - Making the Leap to Post-Quantum Computing Encryption

Quantum computing is coming and it has the potential to be both exciting and terrifying... On today's episode of Trust Issues, host David Puner speaks with cryptographer Dr. Erez Waisbard, CyberArk’s Technology and Research Lead, about quantum computing innovation and its cybersecurity implications – from data encryption to surveillance and privacy. 

Dr. Waisbard breaks down how encryption works, why it’s so important for safeguarding our data, and how quantum computers will break the methods used today. This may sound ominous, but designs for quantum-resistant encryption algorithms are already well underway. Check out the episode to learn more about them and how your organization can start preparing now.
