The development of quantum computers poses a significant future threat to current encryption methods, particularly for long-lived data. Experts are uncertain about the exact timeline for a cryptographically relevant quantum computer, but the risk necessitates immediate action. Financial services, for instance, must ensure their audit records are post-quantum secure now, as regulations like DORA require data retention for years, meaning today's signatures must withstand future quantum attacks.
