Abstract
- The article "Quantum-Proof Secrets" discusses the race among researchers to develop strategies to protect against the potential threat of quantum computers breaking essential forms of cryptography. The author suggests that while attacking encryption systems is challenging for criminals, social engineering exploits, such as tricking employees or artificial intelligence agents, remain the preferred method for cybercrimes. The article emphasizes the importance of considering future data-security risks and thinking like a criminal to enhance data protection. [Extracted from the article]
