Deploying Post-Quantum Cryptography on Legacy Infrastructure

Quantum computers threaten today’s public-key cryptography, but upgrading global infrastructure is not as simple as flipping a switch. Many organizations still rely on legacy hardware and software that cannot be easily replaced.In this episode, we examine whether post-quantum cryptography (PQC) can realistically operate on older systems. We discuss performance overhead, memory limitations, protocol compatibility, and hybrid deployment models that combine classical and post-quantum algorithms.You’ll learn: • Why legacy infrastructure is one of the biggest obstacles in PQC migration • Which post-quantum algorithms are more hardware-friendly • How hybrid cryptography helps during the transition period • What real-world testing reveals about feasibility and performanceThis episode is designed for engineers, researchers, cybersecurity professionals, and decision-makers preparing for the quantum transition.
