Quantum computing timelines are accelerating, and enterprises need to be prepared. While the timeline may not be set in stone, ensure your enterprise is ready for the major changes quantum will bring.
Below, see five quantum resources we have compiled to help you and your enterprise be informed and ready to take the needed steps to calibrate for a new era that is fast-approaching.
1. Navigating accelerated timelines
With breakthroughs in quantum error correction, logical qubit scaling and improved fault-tolerant architectures, quantum computing timelines have accelerated. Donnie Carpenter, Principal, Information Security and Professional Practices at ISACA, recently authored an ISACA Now blog on navigating these accelerated timelines for secure encryption.
2. McKinsey Quantum Technology Monitor
McKinsey’s latest Quantum Technology Monitor provides an overview of how the quantum technology market is evolving, including commercialization and industry impact, the investment landscape, quantum technology market development, and technological maturity. Use this resource to understand your organization’s readiness, track the progress of quantum technologies and determine which business processes could benefit from quantum.
3. Recent ISACA Journal articles on quantum
ISACA members looking for in-depth insights on quantum can turn to the ISACA Journal, which has featured quantum-related topics with regularity. Most recently, the Journal covered commercial cybersecurity in the post-quantum era, quantum-safe cryptography and quantum’s effect on information security.
4. NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography Center
This resource center from NIST shares practical materials helping organizations understand and implement post-quantum cryptographic standards. This resource center includes post-quantum cryptography standards, FAQs, guidance for migration, publications, timelines and more.
5. Dive into ISACA’s Quantum Pulse Poll Results
Only 35% of tech professionals have a good understanding of quantum computing’s capabilities, according to ISACA’s Quantum Pulse Poll, which shares data from more than 2,600 digital trust professionals around the world on quantum computing knowledge, readiness, risks and benefits. Resources include an infographic, quantum roadmap and more.
