About this video
Quantum computers will soon break today’s encryption—are you ready?
In this video we unpack:
• Why scalable quantum computing threatens RSA, ECDSA and digital signatures
• The real risk of “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later” attacks
• Microsoft’s 10-year roadmap to become quantum-safe by 2033
• Practical steps you can start TODAY to protect your apps, data and identity
You’ll see live demos of:
– Post-quantum VPN tunnels running underwater with Project Natick
– SymCrypt library adding ML-KEM & ML-DSA algorithms
– TLS 1.3 hybrid key exchange in Windows and Linux
Whether you’re a developer, CISO, or tech enthusiast, learn how to future-proof your systems with crypto-agility and the latest NIST-approved PQC standards.
Chapters:
0:00 The quantum threat in plain English
2:15 What is post-quantum cryptography (PQC)?
4:30 Microsoft’s Majorana 1 processor & 4D error correction
6:45 Real-world PQC experiments (underwater data-center VPN)
9:10 Timeline: 2029 early adoption → 2033 full transition
11:25 How to start your own quantum-safe journey
14:00 Resources & next steps
