Quantum computers will break today's crypto. We introduce the two pillars of a secure handshake, key exchange and auth, and how each faces a different quantum threat: "harvest now, decrypt later" versus the slower risk to long-lived trust anchors.
While no one has yet built a general purpose Quantum Computer (QC) capable of breaking the public key cryptography in use on the Internet, that possibility is now considered a realistic threat to long-term security. As research into the design of a
