“In the military, where you’re sending extremely sensitive classified data from one office to the next, you want to make sure that no one’s going to be able to break into and decrypt that,” Arthur Herman, senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, said. “Well, [quantum key distribution] is definitely a way in which to carry that out.” 

“What’s important, though, is to realize that migrating an entire federal agency or private sector company to new algorithms is a huge task,” Duncan Jones, head of cybersecurity at Quantinuum, told Breaking Defense.

“Research shows that at some point in the not too distant future when quantum information science matures and quantum computers are able to reach a sufficient size and level of sophistication, they’ll be capable of breaking much of the cryptography that currently secures our digital communication,” a senior administration official said.
