ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Today, we're diving deep into the world of quantum computing and its far-reaching implications for cybersecurity, risk, and digital resilience. Join Frank La Vigne and Candace Gillhoolley as they sit down with Chris Basener, a leading GRC advisor specializing in post-quantum cryptography. Together, they unravel the challenges organizations face in preparing for the inevitable arrival of quantum computers powerful enough to threaten today's encryption, discuss the realities and misconceptions surrounding post-quantum cryptography, and explore practical strategies for building long-term digital resilience.
We'll explore the urgent need for cryptographic agility, the complexities of migrating to new standards, and why every organization—from banks to manufacturers—must start planning now, despite the uncertainty around when quantum threats will fully materialize. Plus, Chris Basener shares insights on talent shortages, project management for quantum readiness, and how companies can move from awareness to action. If you're curious about the intersection of quantum technology, cybersecurity, and strategic risk management, you won't want to miss this conversation!
