Nobody Should Be Buying Proprietary Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Algorithms
Five LinkedIn pitches in one day, each promising provably unbreakable encryption. A tour through cryptography's graveyard shows why unvetted algorithms fail, and how to check any vendor's claims in one afternoon.

The GRC Playbook for Quantum Security
Quantum risk sits awkwardly in most enterprise risk frameworks — too long-horizon for the security team, too technical for the risk committee, too uncertain for the actuaries. This article gives GRC teams the KRIs, governance structures, and regulatory monitoring processes to manage it anyway.

The SOC Quantum Playbook: Detection Rules, Threat Intelligence, and Incident Response
Your SOC already monitors for TLS downgrades and data exfiltration. Quantum security extends those capabilities with new detection rules, threat intelligence requirements, and incident response playbooks that most teams have not yet built.

The PQC Migration Framework Is Free. Attribution Is Not Optional.
The Applied Quantum PQC Migration Framework is the first published methodology covering the complete PQC migration lifecycle at operational depth. It is free under CC BY 4.0. Some consulting firms have stripped the attribution and presented it as proprietary work. The framework is free. Attribution is not optional.

PQC Migration Frameworks: What Changed Between March and June 2026
The PQC migration conversation shifted from "how do we prepare?" to "how do we deploy?" between March and June 2026. Google set a 2029 completion target, Let's Encrypt committed to Merkle Tree Certificates for post-quantum Web PKI, and the FIPS 140-3 validation gap became a hard deployment constraint. This companion to the March 2026 definitive survey assesses every new framework and methodology published in the…

Canada’s PQC Framework: Sound Design, Stalled Execution — What the Bill C-8 Senate Debate Reveals
Four years after Bill C-26 was introduced, its successor Bill C-8 has finally passed the Senate. Quantum got one question in the debate. The enforcement layer that makes Canada's PQC framework work remains years away from addressing quantum risk.

The PQC Migration’s Biggest Risk Isn’t Quantum Computers
The largest cryptographic transition in history is replacing battle-tested code with brand-new implementations under deadline pressure. Hybrid ECC+PQ deployment is the engineering-prudent response, and the ML-DSA bug evidence now quantifies the cost of skipping it.

The Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) Gold Rush
Everyone is selling quantum randomness. Most buyers can't tell the difference between genuine quantum entropy and a rebranded noise source with a quantum sticker on the box. This guide fixes that.
