The encryption protecting your most sensitive data has as an expiration date. Nation-states are harvesting encrypted traffic right now, stockpiling it until quantum computers become powerful enough to crack it in seconds.

In this episode, Ed McNamara sits down with Brad Bowers, SHI's Lead Field Chief Information Security Officer, who breaks down the quantum cryptography threat in terms IT leaders can actually act on. Brad brings over 20 years of security leadership experience from the Federal Reserve, FBI, AT&T, and Verizon to explain what's really happening—and what you need to do about it.

Key takeaways:

Whether you're defending critical infrastructure or planning ahead for retail operations, this is the quantum readiness roadmap you need. The threat isn't coming—it's already here.

Listen now to understand why waiting until 2029 means you're already too late.
