PQC

PQC stands for Post-Quantum Cryptography, which involves developing new cryptographic algorithms designed to be secure against attacks from future quantum computers. It is the process of creating and implementing these algorithms to protect sensitive data in the current, pre-quantum era.

Why it’s in the news: It is in the news due to ongoing standardization efforts, significant funding for startups, and growing awareness of the challenges in transitioning existing systems to these new cryptographic standards.
