Securing Hardware For The Quantum Era
Quantum computers pose a growing security threat, with the potential to break current encryption methods like RSA and ECC as early as next year. Chip architects and designers are urged to plan for long-lasting products like those in automotive and aerospace to remain secure against future quantum attacks. The transition to new quantum-resistant algorithms is essential, as current encryption methods may become completely vulnerable by 2034. The urgency to address post-quantum cryptography readiness is emphasized, especially in sectors like automotive and critical infrastructure where systems may remain operational for 15 to 20 years.
