Can We Secure Cryptography Against Quantum Attacks? [Ed: Hyping up "Crypto"; make keys longer, be done with it; it's not like encryption that works isn't possible]
While a useful quantum computer is still under development, it already is known that when adversaries will start to use it, today's public-key cryptography will be broken. To protect digital information and services against attacks with a quantum computer, a new type of cryptography is needed: post-quantum cryptography.
The 9th Heidelberg Laureate Forum organized a panel discussion on post-quantum cryptography that included three Turing Award recipients: Adi Shamir (the S in RSA), Whitfield Diffie (of the Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol), and Vint Cerf (co-developer of the TCP/IP Internet protocol suite). They were accompanied by two research scientists at IBM Research Europe in Zürich, Switzerland, from a younger generation: Vadim Lyubashevsky and Gregor Seiler, who contributed to the design and implementation of some of the cryptographic schemes selected by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in July 2022 as upcoming standards for public-key encryption and digital signatures.

NVISO EXCELS IN MITRE ATT-CK® MANAGED SERVICES EVALUATION - NVISO Labs [Ed: Bogus badges and vanity NFTs?]
As one of the only EU-based Cyber Security companies, NVISO successfully participated in a first-of-its-kind, MITRE-led, evaluation of Managed Security Services (MSS).
