CoinDesk·
The U.S. government is investing $2 billion in quantum computing, but the defense sector is struggling to keep pace with the technology's rapid advancement. Experts argue that to effectively counter the threat posed by quantum computers capable of breaking current encryption standards, the nation urgently needs to implement post-quantum cryptography. Furthermore, enhanced regulatory coordination is essential, as industry stakeholders have been delaying crucial decisions in this area for years. This strategic investment highlights a critical need for proactive measures to secure national defense against future technological capabilities.
