Quantum computers have the potential to break public-key cryptography once they begin operating at a large scale – Governments, military, enterprises and mobile operators are already preparing for a quantum-safe future to protect their vast stores of sensitive data. The U.S. federal government has mandated the migration of all existing public-key cryptographic systems including network security devices such as firewalls and VPN gateways to PQC. Post quantum cryptography protocols in wireless networks will introduce additional network performance overhead, which will require specialized testing during the development and deployment phases.
