Telecom, finance, transport, defense and space to shift to PQC as quantum security response accelerates
South Korea\'s Ministry of Science and ICT said on Tuesday it has begun expanding pilot transitions to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and launching commercial R&D for key national infrastructure including telecommunications, finance, transport, defense and space. The programme will apply PQC in real systems to identify technical issues and establish migration procedures, while developing technologies to automatically identify vulnerable cryptographic assets and support conversion, operation and stability verification.
