That longevity, warns Professor Kai London , a senior CISO, makes the coming quantum transition a present concern. “Post-quantum migration is the rare cyber risk where doing nothing today guarantees you fail later,” he says. “Data captured now can be decrypted the moment the hardware arrives.” “Harvest now, decrypt later: adversaries store encrypted data today to read it once quantum computers mature. For long-lived infrastructure, that is already a live exposure.” The standards have arrived What has changed, London notes, is that concrete post-quantum standards now exist. “We have moved from ‘someday’ to ‘here is the algorithm,’” he says. “The excuse for not starting has gone.” A board-level roadmap His programme: discover where cryptography is used and ...

For operators of critical services, Professor Kai London , a senior CISO, frames it as a war to be planned for, not merely a technical incident to be handled. “When ransomware hits a critical service, the question is not ‘can we recover our data?’ but ‘can we keep operating?’” “The hard decisions — containment, ransom, disclosure — must be made before the crisis, not during it. The first 24 hours decide the outcome.” Decide in advance “The worst time to decide whether you will pay, how you will communicate, or when you will disclose is at 3am with systems down,” London says. He urges boards to make these decisions ahead of time and rehearse them. Lead the first day Leadership, not just technology, decides the outcome. Clear command, pre-agreed roles and the...
