Post-Quantum Cryptography Insufficient; 'Post-Cyber' Resilience Needed

The author argues that while post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is essential for future security, it is not a complete solution to the evolving threat landscape. Recent incidents involving Snowflake and CrowdStrike highlight that system vulnerabilities often stem from compromised credentials or software failures, rather than encryption breaches. The increasing sophistication of AI in cyberattacks further complicates security, necessitating a broader approach beyond just cryptographic upgrades. The focus should shift towards building resilient systems capable of adapting to changing threats, a concept the author terms "post-cyber." AI

IMPACT Highlights the growing threat of AI in cyberattacks, necessitating new security paradigms.

    Post-Quantum Cryptography Is No Longer The Future. Post-Cyber Is.

    ​The biggest mistake we can make about quantum security is to think the problem is quantum.
