 QED-C® Report Informs Crucial Security Decisions Across Financial Sector

Cryptography acts as a crucial defense against cyberthreats that target the invaluable data flowing through our financial systems. Quantum computing creates a new cybersecurity challenge for financial institutions, as it threatens to break many of the cryptographic algorithms currently used to protect data and communications.

 

A new report, released today to QED-C members, assesses quantum-resistant technologies and provides actionable strategies for achieving security across the finance sector by implementing quantum networking technologies.

Featured funding opportunity

 

Quantum Benchmarking Initiative (QBI)

Future Opportunity Special Notice 

The purpose of this Special Notice (SN) is to provide public notification of additional research areas of interest to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Microsystems Technology Office (MTO), specifically for the Quantum Benchmarking Initiative (QBI) program. It has been credibly hypothesized – but not proven – that quantum computers will have a transformative impact on a variety of scientific and technical disciplines. DARPA is interested in innovative approaches to constructing a utility-scale fault-tolerant quantum computer and applications that can run on those machines.
