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…
Overseeing a Migration You Don’t Technically Understand
Directors govern credit models and actuarial assumptions they cannot personally build. Post-quantum migration works the same way: appetite statements, a short list of indicators,…
Third-Party Cryptographic Risk at Enterprise Scale
Regulators require an inventory of cryptography your suppliers are not obliged to disclose. Four governance artifacts that close the gap and keep third-party PQC…
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…
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…
Pick One Layer: Choosing the PQC Migration That Protects Most
Nested encryption composes in the defender's favor. One quantum-safe confidentiality layer protects the payload underneath it, which makes the first migration decision a choosing…
Sequencing the Waves in a Post-Quantum Migration
Scope is not what sinks a post-quantum program. Order is. A practical guide to gates, dependencies, and how to cut a migration wave that…
Four Technologies That Decide Which Modality Scales
Qubit counts get the headlines. Control electronics, cryogenics, error correction hardware, and critical materials decide which architectures actually scale. A four-layer diagnostic.
Evaluating a Quantum Company: The Technology
Qubit count is the easiest number to quote and the least informative. A working guide to the metrics, modalities, and manufacturing questions behind a…
Sovereign Optionality: What Quantum Independence Looks Like in a Contract
National strategies announce quantum sovereignty. Contracts decide it. The terms that determine whether a buyer can change supplier, jurisdiction, or architecture without restarting.
