The G7 released a roadmap for financial institutions targeting completion by 2035, while the U.S. launched the Year of Quantum Security 2026 initiative with backing from Google, IBM, and others. Federal agencies like NIST, FBI, and CISA are developing migration strategies to address the "harvest now, decrypt later" threat, with NIST establishing initial post-quantum standards for hybrid cryptographic approaches. ## Content # Introduction As we enter a new era of technological advancement, the quantum threat to current encryption methods calls for urgent action from both governments and industries worldwide. Quantum computing poses a significant challenge to existing cryptographic systems, and preparations for this transition are essential to protect sensitive data and secure infrastructure. # G7 Roadmap for the Financial Sector The G7's Cyber Expert Group has released a nonbinding roadmap to guide financial institutions in transitioning to post-quantum cryptography. This framework highlights a phased approach for moving towards quantum-safe systems. It emphasizes the importance of starting with a thorough inventory and risk assessment, progressing through phases of testing and deployment, and aiming for completion by 2035, with critical systems targeted between 2030-2032. # Year of Quantum Security 2026 Initiative Launched in Washington, the Year of Quantum Security 2026 initiative unites U.S. officials, industry leaders, and international diplomats to address quantum security as a pressing infrastructure challenge. With backing from major entities like Google Quantum AI, IBM, and others, the initiative seeks to coordinate efforts across borders. The key message is that collaborative and proactive measures must be taken to avoid fragmented national approaches that could lead to shared vulnerabilities. # U.S. Federal Actions U.S. federal agencies are moving from awareness to action, with organizations like the FBI, NIST, and CISA actively working on cryptographic migration strategies. These agencies recognize the urgency in addressing the "harvest now, decrypt later" threat, where encrypted data collected today might be decrypted by the advanced quantum systems of tomorrow. NIST has established initial post-quantum standards, providing a foundation for organizations to develop hybrid cryptographic approaches as a practical transition path. # Conclusion The transition to post-quantum cryptography requires a global, coordinated effort that involves assessing risks, adhering to evolving standards, and engaging with technology vendors. A proactive stance today will ensure the security of sensitive information and public infrastructure in the future quantum landscape. Governments, industries, and technology entities must work hand-in-hand to navigate this complex transition effectively. ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Financial Firms Urged to Prepare for Quantum Computers](https://daily.dev/posts/financial-firms-urged-to-prepare-for-quantum-computers-mte6mess4) · Dark Reading · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Why US companies must be ready for quantum by 2030: A practical roadmap](https://daily.dev/posts/why-us-companies-must-be-ready-for-quantum-by-2030-a-practical-roadmap-rvifprppd) · CSO Online · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Why Asia’s Quantum Ambitions Need Post-Quantum Security](https://daily.dev/posts/why-asia-s-quantum-ambitions-need-post-quantum-security-lqauarm1z) · The Quantum Insider · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#cryptography](https://daily.dev/tags/cryptography), [#cyber](https://daily.dev/tags/cyber), [#infrastructure](https://daily.dev/tags/infrastructure), [#quantum-computing](https://daily.dev/tags/quantum-computing) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/global-collaboration-on-quantum-security-takes-center-stage-lrzsyjgwp) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Global Collaboration on Quantum Security Takes Center Stage","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/global-collaboration-on-quantum-security-takes-center-stage-lrzsyjgwp","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/global-collaboration-on-quantum-security-takes-center-stage-lrzsyjgwp"},"datePublished":"2026-01-14T17:44:02.062Z","dateModified":"2026-03-15T03:21:48.173Z","description":"Governments and industries are coordinating global efforts to transition to post-quantum cryptography before quantum computers can break current encryption....","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/325e569da9f2ab25731d507b8570883e?_a=AQAEulh","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/325e569da9f2ab25731d507b8570883e?_a=AQAEulh","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Collections","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Collections","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--fk_6ycEi--/f_auto,q_auto/v1780996001/logos/collections?_a=BAMAMiWQ0","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/global-collaboration-on-quantum-security-takes-center-stage-lrzsyjgwp","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":1},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"cryptography,cyber,infrastructure,quantum-computing","timeRequired":"PT2M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Collections","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Global Collaboration on Quantum Security Takes Center Stage"}]} ```
