Harvest now, decrypt later

What it is

An adversary records your encrypted traffic or archives today and decrypts them once a quantum computer exists.

Why now

It needs no quantum computer today, only your data today and one eventually. The deadline is retroactive.

What it looks like in your estate

Any data with a confidentiality lifetime longer than the time to a quantum computer, long-lived records, IP, patient data, archives.

The Dhiti response

Inventory what's exposed, price the confidentiality you're losing, and migrate the highest-risk data first.
