The post-quantum era is closer than you think!
It’s time to tighten up that security hygiene and future-proof your organization’s data before quantum computing renders today’s encryption obsolete.
Here’s your crypto checklist:
Audit your encryption infrastructure
Automate certificate/key management
Educate teams on quantum risk
Pilot NIST’s post-quantum algorithms
Start now—retrofitting later will cost you
Quantum threats don’t wait. Neither should we.

If you want to know more about #ctem, I like this article.
Full disclosure - I work at IBM.
This is a good article about tracking the right #infosec metrics.

…ja und nein und vor allem ist es Marketing durch Angstmacherei. Quantenkomputer sind noch nicht wirklich einsetzbar obwohl es viele als solches gerne vermarkten.

"I will do all we can to enforce 100% OPSEC." - Pete Hegseth, March 14, 2025 in a Signal group chat to coordinate response plans to Houthis.
Group chat of 18 included JD Vance, Tulsi Gabbard, Marco Rubio, and... Jeffrey Goldberg (The Atlantic Editor-in-chief).

I left a long career and the #CISO role at a large university to lead #InfoSec and #NetworkEngineering at a small threat intelligence firm. Excitement, adventure, and really wild things have ensued.
To relax from all that, I enjoy #brewing & judging #beer, #bicycling, and #music, especially #ProgressiveRock. I'll likely be posting a lot on all these topics (unless Metatext implements unified timelines for multiple accounts 
). I'll try to remember to tag appropriately!
Brief #introduction:
>10 years #CISO
>20 years #InfoSec
I am a pragmatic security executive. I enjoy #whiskey, #bbq, #reading and listing to #podcasts that feature an eclectic mix of history, philosophy, sci-fi, and #management books. I mainly play story-driven #RPG (like #Witcher), #Destiny2, #NoMansSky, and #Minecraft.
Interests/expertise includes: #Security #DevSecOps #Leadership #Governance #Tech #Economics #Philosophy #History #Gaming #DnD #Space #iPhoneography
Looks like time for an #introduction ...
I'm a senior #softwaredeveloper who have designed and/or implemented vulnerability scanners, WAF, IDS/IPS, Web Secure Gateway, single-sign-on reverse proxies for several security companies. I have more recently worked on product security for large #opensource project, and eventually turned into a depressed #CISO before jumping back on coding microservices in Go. For a few years I've worked on DNS steering optimization for the #CDN of large scale networks.
As a work hobby, I love re-exploring old or abandoned algorithms for modern security challenges, especially in the domain of large data processing, and often in the world of password cracking (I'm a #JohnTheRipper user since 1997 and had my first autograph signed by SolarDiz in 2001 
).
As real hobbies, I'm a terrible but regular long distance runner, I 3d print and laser cut some shit I design and I bike on a Brompton and a trike from ICE.
