How do we prepare our cybersecurity for a post quantum world? This week, Technology Now explores how security experts are looking to future-proofing their work. We will examine the hurdles to post-quantum security, the underlying ways in which our data is protected, and we will be delving into the underground world of “harvest now, decrypt later”. Dr Sarah McCarthy tells us more.
This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week, hosts Michael Bird and Aubrey Lovell look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what can be learnt from it.
