“The main concern of a cryptographically relevant quantum computer (CRQC) is around its capabilities, as it’s theorized that the machine would break traditional public key cryptography (PKC) algorithms. While CRQCs are currently unavailable, the development trajectory of quantum computing suggests these could emerge by 2037 if not sooner.”
