3, 5 or 8 Years? The Realistic Timeline for Migration and the Task That Can’t Wait

What if quantum computing feels like a distant threat, but your timeline to prepare is already running out? In this episode of Shielded: The Last Line of Cyber Defense, host Johannes Lintzen welcomes Adrian Neal, Senior Director and Global Lead for Post-Quantum Cryptography at Capgemini. Adrian shares the urgent realities of PQC migration, from why a three-to-five-year plan is really an eight-year journey to the performance shocks of new algorithms and the critical need for crypto-agility. Learn why apathy is the greatest risk, how regulatory pressure could unlock boardroom action, and where CISOs must start to build quantum-ready systems today.
