Expert perspectives on application security, compliance, and emerging threats
Cryptography and Key ManagementYour encryption is already obsolete, you just don t know which systems are vulnerable yet. Quantum computing isn t a distant problem. Adversaries are harvesting encrypted data today, storing it, and w
Cryptography and Key ManagementThe Question at Hand Your encryption keys work today. Your TLS certificates validate. Your Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) meet FIPS 140-3 requirements. So why would you invest time and budget in pos
Cryptography and Key ManagementYour payments infrastructure relies on cryptographic controls you can t afford to lose sight of. As quantum-capable systems emerge, you ll need to know exactly what you re protecting, where it resides
Cryptography and Key ManagementYou re responsible for protecting cardholder data, transaction records, and authentication credentials that could remain sensitive for ten years or more. Quantum computing isn t here yet, but adversar

Cryptography and Key ManagementYou re managing a security infrastructure involved in payment processing, and someone just asked whether your team should start migrating to post-quantum algorithms. The honest answer: it depends on w
Cryptography and Key ManagementYour cryptographic dependencies are about to become your biggest vulnerability. As quantum computing advances, the algorithms protecting your authentication systems, key management infrastructure, and
Cryptography and Key ManagementPurpose of the Checklist You can t swap out cryptographic algorithms like you replace a server. Payment systems, cardholder data environments, and transaction processing pipelines embed cryptographic
Cryptography and Key ManagementYou re looking at a vast array of cryptographic implementations across payment systems, transaction databases, authentication services, and customer records. Quantum computing threatens to break RSA,
Cryptography and Key ManagementScope This guide tackles the challenge of discovering and inventorying cryptographic assets in payment environments, especially as post-quantum cryptography becomes a requirement. It s designed for te
Cryptography and Key ManagementThe March 2027 deadline for CBOM standards isn t your problem. Your problem is finding every certificate, key, and algorithm buried in your infrastructure before quantum computers break your encryptio
Cryptography and Key ManagementWhen Marin Ivezic, CEO of Applied Quantum, led post-quantum cryptography migration programs with over 120,000 tasks, only 30,000 involved cryptography directly. The remaining 90,000 tasks dealt with i
Cryptography and Key ManagementYou ve heard the timelines. You ve seen the NIST standards . Your cryptography team is ready. So why do post-quantum cryptography migrations often become organizational nightmares that consume years a
Cryptography and Key ManagementThe payment industry faces a critical decision point. Quantum computing threatens RSA and ECC keys, while AES adoption lags despite warnings about Triple DES deprecation. Your team has limited budget
Cryptography and Key ManagementThe 2030 post-quantum cryptography deadline isn t far off. President Trump moved it forward from 2035, and if you re treating this as a future problem, you re already behind. The White House quantum s
Cryptography and Key ManagementThe Growing Quantum Threat The payments industry is on the brink of a cryptographic crisis driven by advances in quantum computing. While no breach has occurred yet, regulators worldwide are mandating
Cryptography and Key ManagementThe 2030 deadline isn t hypothetical anymore. NIST will complete its critical systems migration by the end of next year, setting the pace for everyone else. If you re responsible for securing cardhold
