“Quantum technology is shaping today’s opportunities and tomorrow’s risks, and the United States is well positioned to strengthen its quantum leadership on the global stage,” said 91¿ì»îÁÖ Executive Vice President of Policy and General Counsel John Miller.
“The Quantum Innovation EO lays the groundwork for a stronger quantum ecosystem through increased federal capabilities, a refreshed National Quantum Strategy, expanded public-private partnerships, and stronger protections for critical research,” Miller continued. “With powerful quantum computers that can break the encryption that secures the internet becoming closer to reality by the day, the Post-Quantum Cryptography EO sets appropriately aggressive timelines to direct federal government agencies to prepare for quantum-enabled cybersecurity risks. Policymakers must continue working closely with industry and international partners to modernize strategies to protect systems against attacks and accelerate the next generation of quantum innovation.”
