Summary

The evolution of quantum computers undermines the security of Public Key Infrastructure: the threat cannot be mitigated by using larger keys. Progress in realising a quantum computer is accelerating world-wide. Approaches that are “quantum safe” need to be developed urgently with a combination of Post-Quantum Cryptography and Quantum Key Distribution.
