🔒 Future-Proofing Payments with Quantum Cryptography Quantum cryptography is poised to reshape the landscape of cross-border payments, enhancing both security and performance. Recently, Citi’s Sophia Bantanidis hosted Terra Quantum AG’s CEO Markus Pflitsch and Global Director of Commercialization Vishal Shete to explore how this groundbreaking technology can transform the financial sector. Why Quantum Cryptography? Quantum cryptography offers two vital advantages: - Enhanced performance in addressing complex challenges. - Strengthened security, safeguarding digital data across entire ecosystems. Yet, the power of QC also brings challenges for emerging technologies like blockchain/DLT, as it has the potential to compromise existing cryptographic standards. The timeline? Within the next few years, quantum hardware advancements will push classical encryption to its limits, making a quantum-safe infrastructure essential. This transition is expected to be a greater challenge than Y2K and demands immediate action. Challenges Ahead Despite its promise, adopting quantum-safe solutions faces hurdles, including financial costs, a scarcity of skilled talent, and the significant reengineering of current protocols. Institutions may struggle to stay prepared in the face of this technology transformation. Additionally, the path to adoption requires global regulatory frameworks and standardization. As quantum technologies evolve, Terra Quantum AG remains committed to helping institutions build resilient, quantum-safe systems that can meet the demands of a secure, digital future. 👉Check out the video here: https://lnkd.in/eMsrVHqp #QuantumIsNow #QuantumCryptography #Cybersecurity #TerraQuantum #QuantumComputing #FutureOfFinance #CrossBorderPayments
