On this episode, Mason Molesky breaks down the post-quantum EOs: “Securing the Nation Against Advanced Cryptographic Attack,” which establishes a government‑wide mandate to accelerate the United States’ transition to post‑quantum cryptography. Mason covers what it is, why you should care and what you should do. Then: Suja Visewesan and Mark Hughes join host Matt Kosinski to discuss Q-Day, the anticipated future day when quantum computing will become “cryptographically relevant” — or put another way: powerful, reliable and accessible enough to make our current approach to public key cryptography obsolete. But what if Q-Day isn’t a day at all? What if it’s a process—a long, slow evolution rather than a sudden leap? And what if it’s already happening right now, under our noses? We chat about the risks—and ben
