‘The fixes are architectural, not bigger pipes’: OpenSSL President on what businesses can expect and how to prepare for a post-quantum internet

The internet is preparing for a post-quantum world that renders much of the encryption the world has relied on obsolete. To understand just how powerful post-quantum decryption is, think of enigma: an encryption machine that took the entire secret operation of Bletchley park over a year to crack would be solved almost instantly.
