The executive's guide to hybrid post‑quantum encryption (Forbes)

In this Forbes Technology Council piece, Xiid CTO Federico Simonetti makes the case that quantum risk is not a future problem, as adversaries are already harvesting encrypted data today to decrypt later. The path forward isn't a rip-and-replace overhaul but a crypto-agile architecture: hybrid post-quantum encryption layered over existing systems, ephemeral keys, and end-to-end encryption that eliminates break-and-inspect backdoors. Simonetti closes with four board-level questions every organization should be asking this quarter, and a clear directive: start small, start now.
