Protection Against Quantum Computers Starts with Insights

Although still unknown when exactly, we know for a fact that the quantum computer is coming. We are aware that quantum computers pose a threat to a significant part of the current cryptographic algorithms. This means that many of our hardware and software systems are no longer safe. Organisations should inventory the cryptographic methods they are using, which turns out to be complicated. In this blog, TNO explains how to help, with insights from 

Thom Sijpesteijn, Researcher Applied Cryptography, and Manon de Vries, Scientist Applied Cryptography and Quantum Applications.
