How Craig is shaping the future with confidence
Craig’s passion for new technology continues, through the Quantum initiative. Quantum poses both an opportunity and a threat. Craig and the team have been proactively exploring ways to harness the power of Quantum computing within the service line, while simultaneously advocating for protection against Quantum threats, by leveraging the NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) standards. Craig likens the Quantum threat to Y2K preparation, stating, “It’s similar to Y2K; however, we don’t know the exact date and time it will occur.”
