The CISO’s Dilemma: Preparing for Post Quantum Migration While Securing Gasless Transactions
Why both problems reward the same underlying capability — and how security leaders can act on it in the next 90 days.
Two risks, one decision window
Security leaders are increasingly being asked two questions in the same quarter: is the organization ready for post‑quantum cryptography, and can it support gasless transactions without weakening control? The problems are different, but they reward the same discipline — inventory, written policy, telemetry and phased rollout — and they fail the same way when those are missing. The underlying question, in both cases, is how quickly the organization can change a cryptographic or trust assumption without disrupting the business.
What is real, and what needs perspective
The post‑quantum transition is no longer theoretical. NIST has approved three post‑quantum standards — FIPS 203 (ML‑KEM), FIPS 204 (ML‑DSA) and FIPS 205 (SLH‑DSA)[1],[2] — and the NSA's CNSA 2.0 suite sets a 2035 horizon for U.S....
