What Is Post-Quantum Cryptography?
Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) is the next generation of encryption designed to protect data against future quantum computers.
Today's SSL/TLS certificates rely on cryptographic algorithms such as RSA and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). These algorithms are considered secure against traditional computers but could eventually be broken by powerful quantum computers.
Post-Quantum Cryptography introduces new algorithms that remain secure even if quantum computing becomes practical.
