: Uses error-correcting codes to create security.
: Unlike PQC, QKD requires specialized fiber-optic hardware and "trusted nodes," making it expensive and difficult to scale for the general internet. 3. The Human and Process Leap Do We Need Quantum Leaps in Security?
: Moving away from "perimeter" security to a model where no user or device is trusted by default, regardless of their location. : Uses error-correcting codes to create security
: Based on the Observer Effect , any attempt to eavesdrop on a quantum signal changes its state, immediately alerting the senders. The Human and Process Leap : Moving away
Security is rarely just a technical problem. A "quantum leap" is also required in how we manage data lifecycle:
: This is a "leap" in agility; organizations must move toward crypto-agility , allowing them to swap out compromised algorithms without rebuilding entire systems. 2. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD)
