href=\"https:\/\/www.nist.gov\/news-events\/news\/2024\/08\/nist-releases-first-3-finalized-post-quantum-encryption-standards\">advised<\/a> in a statement. &#8220;Go ahead and start using these three. We need to be prepared in case of an attack that defeats the algorithms in these three standards, and we will continue working on backup plans to keep our data safe. But for most applications, these new standards are the main event.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It has taken years to get the point of having three finalized algorithms. NIST first issued a call for submissions in 2016, and then <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nist.gov\/news-events\/news\/2022\/07\/nist-announces-first-four-quantum-resistant-cryptographic-algorithms\">asked<\/a> for additional options in 2022. The more recent algorithms are currently undergoing evaluation, and about 15 from this group are expected to move on to the next round of testing and analysis.<\/p>\n<p>While we haven&#8217;t yet entered the era of encryption-breaking attacks, America&#8217;s adversaries \u2013 including <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2023\/07\/20\/russias_tiny_quantum_computer_is\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Russia<\/a> and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2023\/02\/02\/china_quantum_computers\/\" rel=\"noopener\">China<\/a> \u2013 are pumping resources into quantum computing test beds. Once they have the capabilities to decrypt algorithms and forge digital signatures, for example, attackers could do things like implant compromised firmware on hardware running in critical infrastructure facilities, thus causing a major, disruptive cyber attack.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also the fear that other nations are <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2021\/11\/29\/china_quantum_ai_offensive\/\" rel=\"noopener\">stealing<\/a> as much encrypted data as they can now \u2013&nbsp;things like national security secrets and sensitive IP \u2013 and storing it until the technology exists to break the encryption, which would give them full access to the top-secret information.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>IBM called the newly published algorithms a &#8220;crucial milestone to advancing the protection of the world&#8217;s encrypted data from cyber attacks,&#8221; while also touting its role in the development of all three newly published standards plus the fourth, soon-to-be-finalized algorithm.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We understand these advancements could herald an upheaval in the security of our most sensitive data and systems,&#8221; IBM Quantum VP Jay Gambetta declared in a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.ibm.com\/2024-08-13-ibm-developed-algorithms-announced-as-worlds-first-post-quantum-cryptography-standards\">statement<\/a>. &#8220;However, NIST&#8217;s publication of the
