“…The transition to quantum-resistant cryptographic methods involves not only the development of new algorithms but also a comprehensive assessment of the current state of security protocols and their readiness for the post-quantum era. Malina et al (2023) explore the deployment of quantum-resistant cybersecurity in intelligent infrastructures, reviewing current security recommendations, existing security libraries, and the support of PQC in widely-used security protocols. Their work presents a practical assessment of recently selected PQC algorithms by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for standardization on typical platforms, such as smartphones and single-board computers, and discusses the implications of post-quantum migration for intelligent infrastructures.…”

This study explores the dual impact of quantum computing on cybersecurity, focusing on the challenges it poses to existing cryptographic standards and the opportunities it presents for enhancing secure communication. Through a comprehensive review of current literature and analysis of emerging quantum-resistant technologies such as Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), the research identifies key vulnerabilities in traditional encryption methods and outlines the potential of quantum technologies to revolutionize cybersecurity practices. The study emphasizes the urgent need for the development and standardization of quantum-resistant cryptographic solutions to safeguard digital assets against the computational capabilities of quantum technologies. Policy recommendations are psroposed to accelerate the adoption of quantum-safe standards and to foster collaboration among stakeholders in the cybersecurity ecosystem. Furthermore, the study highlights areas for future research, including the scalability of quantum-resilient solutions and the ethical implications of quantum computing on privacy and security. Conclusively, the findings suggest that a proactive and collaborative approach is essential for navigating the quantum computing era, underscoring the importance of preparing a quantum-resilient cybersecurity infrastructure to ensure the long-term security of digital communications and assets.
