    Known and vetted systems are always the most secure. Until RSA is broken, and then they’ll need to update to a quantum resilient standard. Which we’ve had in the wild for 6 years already and the NIST has officially approved for 2 years.

    We’re still at least a decade away from a machine with enough qbits to do it. So i feel like we should be fine.

    It’s the fucking Credit Bureaus, Telecoms, and Energy Companies I worry about. They keep fucking up.

      Anyone who complies with the NIST standards is in a good place.

      The problem is that a lot of places are not in compliance with NIST standards.

      I know, I’ve helped patch them.

        Yep, but we’ve got at least a decade to do it, and when new systems are stood up they “should” be in compliance.

          Based on my experience if we say it needs done in a decade it will never be done.
