Too many Q-Day predictions are “by vibes.” I’ve updated my CRQC Capability Framework - the evidence-based method used by national security analysts for years.
If you want to track Q-Day properly - QEC, connectivity, magic states, decoders, manufacturability - not hype, start here: https://postquantum.com/post-quantum/crqc-quantum-capability-framework/
My blog PostQuantum.com just went over 1M unique visitors in 30 days. 37K in the last day.
The message is clear: Quantum security is no longer niche - and people are trying to cut through the hype, confusion, and pseudo-expert noise.

2030 is closer than you think – some experts predict that could be Q-Day (quantum code-breaking day). The EU, US, and others are already moving target dates up to around 2030 for critical systems to be quantum-safe. Meanwhile, an ISACA poll found only 5% of orgs have a quantum plan. Time to kick procrastination to the curb and treat this with urgency! #QuantumSecurity https://postquantum.com/post-quantum/quantum-readiness-pqc-migration/

Quantum computing is being called the “skeleton key” of the digital world – a master key that could unlock nearly all of today’s encrypted data. In other words, a sufficiently powerful quantum computer poses a universal cyber threat more serious than anything before. Boards and CEOs can’t afford to ignore this. #QuantumSecurity #PQC https://postquantum.com/post-quantum/quantum-threat-executives-board/

Unlike Y2K, Q-Day (the day quantum computers break our crypto) won’t be a dramatic midnight event. On Q-Day, everything will appear normal – websites still load, transactions still go through – but the invisible security layer will have crumbled. This article paints the scenario: the morning after Q-Day. It’s a quiet crisis: no immediate crashes, but a fundamental pillar of digital trust is gone. #QuantumSecurity https://postquantum.com/post-quantum/q-day-y2q-what-will-happen/
“Whoever develops quantum computing first will have palpable military advantages”  – that quote sums it up. The allure of being able to crack any encryption (think reading adversaries’ secret comms) has nations racing to both build quantum computers and also upgrade their own crypto (#PQC) before someone else’s quantum machine can undermine their security. It’s an arms race where qubits are the warheads... #QuantumSecurity https://postquantum.com/quantum-computing/quantum-geopolitics/
From IBM’s “Crypto Explorer + Advisor + Remediator” suite (which creates a detailed Cryptography Bill of Materials) to Keyfactor’s crypto-agility platform and open-source scanners – there’s no one-size-fits-all for crypto inventory. This guide breaks down strengths/limits of each vendor approach. The key is to use a mix to cover all bases. The goal: no hidden RSA key or TLS config goes unnoticed. #QuantumSecurity https://postquantum.com/post-quantum/cryptographic-inventory-vendors/
The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) just issued a global wake-up call to banks: “the time to act is now” on quantum security. They warn that attackers can harvest data now, decrypt later, so the financial system must upgrade to #PQC well before quantum computers arrive. #QuantumReadiness #QuantumSecurity https://postquantum.com/industry-news/bis-quantum-roadmap-banking/
Quantum hacking isn’t just about qubits – it’s about megawatts. This piece explains how keeping a quantum computer at cryogenic temps and running Shor’s algorithm will gulp down colossal power. It’s even suggested that a breakthrough in fusion energy could be the unexpected accelerator for quantum attacks (limitless power → limitless decryption?). Bottom line: the energy cost buys us some time, but not forever. #QuantumSecurity https://postquantum.com/post-quantum/energy-cost-rsa-2048-quantum/

Harvest Now, Decrypt Later – aka “Steal now, crack when you can” – is the quantum threat that’s here today. Adversaries (think nation-states) are likely collecting encrypted data now in hopes of decrypting it once quantum computers mature. Why does that matter? Because any sensitive info with a long shelf life (state secrets, personal data, IP, medical records) could be an open book in 5-10+ years if we don’t secure it with quantum-resistant methods ASAP. #QuantumSecurity https://postquantum.com/post-quantum/harvest-now-decrypt-later-hndl/
A startling stat: 62% of security pros worry about quantum attacks, but only 5% say it’s a high priority at their org . Meanwhile regulators (EU, Canada, etc.) are setting PQC deadlines (2026-2030). CISOs who get ahead of this curve can turn compliance lemons into budget lemonade. Time to treat #QuantumSecurity as a crisis before it hits. https://postquantum.com/post-quantum/quantum-ciso-budget/
Canada isn’t waiting for Q-Day – it just rolled out a detailed roadmap to migrate all federal IT systems to #PQC by 2035. Every department must have a PQC migration plan by April 2026, with high-priority systems quantum-safe by 2031. This bold plan aims to “migrate all public-key crypto” in government to protect citizens’ data from the looming #Quantum threat. #QuantumSecurity https://postquantum.com/industry-news/canada-pqc-roadmap/
