EU plans quantum-safe encryption through 2030The NIS Group lists risk analyses, pilot projects and interchangeable algorithms as next steps.
- All EU member states should begin switching to post-quantum cryptography by the end of 2026 at the latest.
- Experts recommend deploying PQC in critical infrastructure, including energy and telecommunications, as soon as possible and by end-2030 at latest.
- The strategy of decrypting data collected today later could eventually enable quantum computers to access it.
- A Fraunhofer ISI study sees potential for QKD but cites roughly 100-kilometre range and further technical hurdles.
