Navigating the Quantum Shift: A Practical Approach to Crypto-Agility with PQC-Enabled PKI
The conversation around quantum computing is shifting from theory to reality, especially when it’s centered on security and mounting threats against current encryption algorithms. The UK National Cyber Security Centre’s (NCSC) recent guidance on “PQC Migration Timelines” underscores the urgency for organizations to transition to post-quantum cryptography (PQC). Urgency is being driven by the rising…

Cloudflare rolls out post-quantum encryption for enterprise users
Internet security company Cloudflare, the world’s largest DDoS-mitigation service, plans to shift a sizable chunk of its traffic through post-quantum encrypted services over the next year. Approximately 35% of human-directed web traffic to Cloudflare’s network is currently protected through advanced encryption algorithms. These algorithms are theoretically designed to withstand attacks from significantly more powerful quantum…
