The Four Capabilities a PQC Program Needs
Most organizations don't need four post-quantum hires. They need four capabilities: discovery, architecture, implementation, and delivery. How those map to headcount depends on the…
Where Every Country Stands on Post-Quantum Migration
More than a dozen national authorities have published post-quantum deadlines. They agree on 2035 and disagree on almost everything before it. A field guide…
The CISO, the Three Lines, and Who Owns PQC Migration
Reporting lines say little about what a CISO controls. Who leads post-quantum migration depends on where the cryptographic estate sits and on decision rights…
The Three Shapes of Objection That Stall a PQC Program
Most post-quantum programs stall on organizational arguments, not technical ones. The recurring objections come in three shapes, and each one can be answered without…
No One Can Cost a PQC Migration. Fund It Anyway.
There is no benchmark for a post-quantum migration, because no enterprise has finished one. You can still build a defensible budget from numbers your…
Who Should Own Post-Quantum Migration
Post-quantum migration programs stall on ownership, not technology. Four tests for naming the accountable executive, and the mandate, budget, and authority the role needs…
A Field Guide to Misleading Quantum Marketing
Quantum vocabulary moves procurement budgets, and marketing has noticed. The two shapes a bad claim takes, four questions that tell them apart, and what…

How to Read China’s Quantum Computing Hardware Record
Two laboratories on Earth have published below-threshold quantum error correction, and one of them is in Hefei. A working method for separating demonstrated capability…
Where Telecom Operators Should Start
The algorithms are settled. What stops most carriers is that nobody can yet read a cryptographic inventory and say which findings matter first.
