EU calls for post-quantum encryption by 2026, warning of a looming "cryptocalypse." 🔐

Critical infrastructure must adopt quantum-safe algorithms by 2030 to defend against future decryption threats. 🧠

Privacy, security, and national resilience are on the line. How prepared is your country? 🌍

heise online · "Cryptocalypse": EU demands quantum-safe encryption – partly by 2030By Stefan Krempl

Are your defenses ready for the quantum future?

Quantum computing and cybersecurity are on a collision course—and it's time to start thinking about the impacts it will have on your organization.

Check out our latest blog to learn what quantum computing means for your organization, the NIST standards, how to protect your data, and what steps to take right now to stay ahead of the curve.

Monday news from ITSPmagazine 🙂 #happymonday!

Join Marc Manzano, Sean Martin, CISSP and me on this week SandboxAQ Webinar!

After an incredible conversation with Marc on the #RSAC floor in San Francisco — where Sean and I used every second of our time and still had more to explore — I knew the #Sandbox Story couldn’t stop there.

If you missed that on-location episode from #RSAC2025, catch it here:

Now, we’re keeping the momentum going with a live ITSPmagazine webinar you don’t want to miss — and I won’t either. 🤘😬

🔐 How To Detect And Mitigate Non-Human Identity And Cryptographic Vulnerabilities | An ITSPmagazine Webinar with SandboxAQ

Join Marc, Sean, and me as we dig deeper into how SandboxAQ is tackling one of today’s most urgent security challenges.

Unmanaged cryptographic assets and non-human identities have left security teams blind to critical risks. These gaps have fueled vulnerabilities, breaches, compliance challenges, and operational drag across enterprise environments.

By attending, you’ll:

🔸 Gain visibility into cryptographic assets and non-human identities like API keys, certificates, and service accounts

🔸 See how #AQtiveGuard enables automated discovery, threat detection, and root cause analysis without disrupting workflows

🔸 Learn how to future-proof your security with Post-Quantum Cryptography readiness and AI-powered #SecOps

Daniel J. Bernstein (#djb, to those who know and love him [1]) has a new blog entry about the NIST post-quantum #cryptography standardization process that's been ongoing for some years. Also, follow him @djb .

If you're not aware of some of the controversy about how NIST is running this process, it's a must-read.

My $0.02: it sure looks like NIST is backstopping an attempt by the NSA to get everyone to standardize on cryptography #standards that the #NSA knows how to break.

Again.

Yes, they did it before. If you read up on the Dual_EC calamity and its fallout, and how this time it was supposed to be different - open, transparent, secure - then prepare to be disappointed. NIST is playing #Calvinball with their rules for this contest, yanking the rug out from under contenders that appear to be more #secure and better understood, while pushing alternatives that are objectively worse (#weaker encryption, less studied, poorer #performance).

Frankly, I think organizations outside of the #USA would be foolish to trust anything that comes out of #NIST's current work. Well, those inside the USA too, but some of those may be forced by law to use whatever NIST certifies.

[1] Some people think djb is "prickly", not lovable. Oddly, it seems that the only people who say this are those who are wildly incorrect about code/algorithms and are being gently but publicly corrected about by djb at the time

The post-quantum era is closer than you think!

It’s time to tighten up that security hygiene and future-proof your organization’s data before quantum computing renders today’s encryption obsolete.

Here’s your crypto checklist:
🔐 Audit your encryption infrastructure
⚙️ Automate certificate/key management
🧠 Educate teams on quantum risk
🧪 Pilot NIST’s post-quantum algorithms
📅 Start now—retrofitting later will cost you

Quantum threats don’t wait. Neither should we.

🌟 EduQ: our DIY Quantum Learning platform for the mass 🔐✨

🎉 Just demoed our hands-on quantum learning platform at a cutting-edge French Engineering school ! EduQ makes quantum accessible to engineers without physics backgrounds through applied experiments and research

➜ Live-generated entangled photons (g²(0) < 1 = quantum-proof!)
➜ Quantum comms detect eavesdroppers automatically — like a built-in cyber alarm!
➜ Hybrid systems (quantum + post-quantum crypto) = ultra-secure future.

EduQ bridges theory and real-world impact to redefine secure communications. One photon at a time.
