Article discusses the 'harvest now, decrypt later' threat where attackers collect encrypted data today for future decryption using quantum computers, emphasizing the need for post-quantum cryptography preparation.

Most organizations assume encrypted data is safe. But many attackers are already preparing for a future where today’s encryption can be broken. Instead of trying to decrypt information now, they are collecting encrypted data and storing it so it can be decrypted later using quantum computers. This tactic—known as “harvest now, decrypt later”—means sensitive data transmitted today could become
