As quantum computing advances, governments and organizations worldwide are preparing for a major transition in digital security. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer could eventually break many of today's encryption systems, creating significant risks for critical infrastructure, financial systems and sensitive data.
This webinar will examine the global governance implications of the transition to quantum-resilient cryptography, with particular attention to the challenges facing low- and middle-income countries. It will explore how unequal access to funding, technical expertise and cybersecurity capacity could widen existing digital divides, and discuss the international cooperation, financing mechanisms and capacity-building efforts needed to support a secure and inclusive transition to the post-quantum era.
The event forms part of 海角社区-CPR's Global Governance Innovation Platform (GGI), which identifies practical governance innovations and policy solutions to strengthen international cooperation on emerging global challenges.
