Google fordert Regierungen und Industrie auf, sich jetzt auf die Cybersicherheit im Quantenzeitalter vorzubereiten

**Submission Statement**

Google’s warning highlights a narrowing window for action as post-quantum cryptography moves from planning to large-scale deployment, with the coming years likely defined by how quickly governments and industry can migrate legacy systems and protect long-lived data from “store now, decrypt later” threats. As NIST standards begin to shape procurement and compliance, crypto agility and cloud-based modernization are expected to become essential enablers of quantum-safe security, particularly across critical infrastructure and regulated sectors. Ultimately, the pace and coherence of global coordination rather than breakthroughs in quantum hardware alone will determine whether the quantum era delivers transformative benefits without introducing systemic cybersecurity risks.

Today was the first day that I ever cut someone’s hair that told me that they were working on quantum Internet. No shit. I asked a lot of questions and no, it’s not here yet. But it’s right around the corner…
