"NIST Will Fire the 'Starting Gun' in the Race to Quantum Encryption"

ML-KEM, CRYSTALS-Dilithium, and Sphinx Plus are three standardized post-quantum algorithms that will allow classical computers to encrypt data against a future fault-tolerant quantum computer. Matthew Scholl, the chief of the computer security division in the National Institute of Standards and Technology's (NIST) Information Technology (IT) Laboratory, urges organizations to monitor algorithm configuration and test for vulnerabilities during implementation. This article continues to discuss experts' insights on the proactive transition of networks to quantum-resilient standards.
