The conversation around post-quantum cryptography (PQC) has shifted. Organizations are no longer asking whether they should prepare for quantum computing, but how quickly they can execute a migration that many expect will take years to complete.

As technology providers accelerate their roadmaps, governments introduce new expectations and boards seek greater assurance over cyber resilience, quantum readiness has become a business priority rather than a future technology project.

That urgency is being driven from several directions. Google and Microsoft have both set out roadmaps that point towards 2029 as a significant milestone in the transition to quantum-safe cryptography, while the recent US Executive Order on strengthening national cyber security reinforces the expectation that organizations begin preparing for the post-quantum era.

Together, these developments are shortening the planning horizon and increasing the pressure on CISOs to move from strategy to execution.

That shift from awareness to execution...
