WEBINAR: Redefining Security – The challenges of implementing Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC)
In the late 1970s, cryptographic history saw the emergence of two seminal algorithms: McEliece and RSA. At that time, quantum threats were theoretical, and the selection criteria for cryptographic algorithms prioritized public key length and execution time, leading to RSA’s prominence while McEliece remained obscure… Read More

NIST Standardizes PQShield Algorithms for International Post-Quantum Cryptography
News of cyberattacks is routine these days in spite of the security mechanisms built into widely used electronics systems. It is not surprising that entities involved with ensuring safe and secure systems are continually working on enhancing encryption/decryptions mechanisms. Recently NIST standardized cryptography algorithms… Read More
Post-quantum cryptography steps on the field
In cybersecurity circles, the elephant in the room is a quantum computer in the hands of nefarious actors. A day is coming, soon, when well-funded organizations will be able to rent time on, or maybe even build or buy a quantum machine. Then, if data is valuable enough, people will hunt for it. Two or three months of compute time on a … Read More
CEO Interviews: Dr Ali El Kaafarani of PQShield
Dr Ali El Kaafarani is the founder and CEO of PQShield, a British cybersecurity startup specialising in quantum-secure solutions. A University of Oxford spin-out, PQShield is pioneering the commercial roll-out of a new generation of cryptography that’s fit for the quantum challenge, yet integrates with companies’ legacy
Quantum Computing and Threats to Secure Communication
There is never a dearth of new terms, discoveries and inventions in the technological world. And sometimes existing terms get reinvigorated. And debates ensue. The debaters argue about the plusses and minuses and make some predictions. Such is the case with “Quantum Computing.” I recently watched and listened to a webinar that… Read More
