The G7 Cybersecurity Working Group urges governments and organizations to begin transitioning to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to protect public key encryption from emerging quantum computing threats, emphasizing early action due to ongoing 'store now, decrypt later' attacks and advocating for a phased, risk-based strategy.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Government and security tech founders must accelerate PQC integration to meet new G7 mandates. Delay leaves your encryption products and clients exposed to a growing quantum threat that the market is urgently moving to counter.
