Why Crypto Agility Is Crucial to Navigating Quantum Computing
Blog Post from Sectigo
Blog Post Sep 19, 2022Today the world’s data is secured with technology that in some ways acts like a passport. Like passports, this technology – a public key infrastructure (PKI) digital certificate – contains identity information related to the holder. In the digital world, digital certificates act as a “passport” for humans and the machines (such as software, code, bots, IoT/OT, laptops, and devices) they use.

5 Ways to Prepare Now for Quantum Computing
Blog Post from Sectigo
Blog Post Sep 06, 2022For nearly 50 years, public key infrastructure (PKI) has provided a secure cryptographic foundation for the world’s data. But in the next few years, quantum computers are destined to render the current cryptographic algorithms that secure devices and the people who use them obsolete.
