  "account": "Enterprise-grade organizations are making strides in post-quantum cryptography initiatives, but a significant gap remains - only 7% have fully deployed quantum-safe or hybrid cryptography across their digital certificates. DigiCert's recent survey underscores the challenge: only 87% are actively planning, testing, or implementing post-quantum cryptography, while the remaining 13% lag behind. This underscores the urgent need for enterprises to prepare for a quantum-resistant future. TheCUBE Research's Krista Case emphasizes that cryptography is deeply woven into applications, infrastructure, and critical business processes, making quantum risk a potential operational deadline. As part of its ongoing efforts, DigiCert is hosting its annual World Quantum Readiness Day event on Sept. 17, with live coverage by theCUBE. The event will focus on quantum risk and provide insights from security leaders and public key infrastructure teams on inventorying cryptographic assets, prioritizing migration, evaluating quantum-safe algorithms, and preparing for the quantum era. DigiCert's ongoing AI Trust architecture development, including AI Agent Trust and AI Agent Passport, will also be highlighted during the event, as enterprises grapple with the complexities of AI-driven software modernization and the new challenges they pose for cryptographic security.",
  "summary": "Most enterprises now have post-quantum cryptography initiatives underway. The problem is that very few have implemented quantum-safe protections across their infrastructure. This gap was highlighted recently in a survey released by digital trust company DigiCert Inc. The report’s findings indicated that 87% of organizations were planning, testing or implementing post-quantum cryptography…",
