The piece argues that financial institutions need to migrate to post-quantum cryptography now, framing this as risk management for critical infrastructure rather than a distant concern. Its main concrete points are that thousands of change programmes are already underway and that regulators are pushing for preparation even though the timing of a cryptographically relevant quantum computer is uncertain. For readers, the practical takeaway is the sequencing: prioritising high-value "crown-jewel" data and auditing third-party suppliers. The article is written by a vendor (PQShield), so its urgency framing should be weighed against the lack of a firm threat timeline.
