A Cryptography Engineer’s Perspective on Quantum Computing Timelines
Google and Oratomic's research drastically accelerates the quantum cryptography threat timeline, pushing the post-quantum migration deadline to 2029 instead of decades away—forcing immediate infrastructure overhaul despite implementation complexity.
Let’s All Agree to Use Seeds as ML-KEM Keys
NIST's ML-KEM post-quantum standard allows storing private keys as 64-byte seeds instead of 3.2 KB expanded format, eliminating validation bugs and ecosystem fragmentation.
A bet on whether ML-KEM-768 or X25519 will break first
Cryptographers Filippo Valsorda and Matthew Green bet $5,000 that FIPS 203-standardized post-quantum ML-KEM-768 will outlast the ECC-based X25519 through 2040, publicly pressure-testing confidence in the post-quantum transition.
