Post-Quantum Readiness: GAO Finds No Agency Fully Prepared as Chrome and OpenSSH Add Quantum-Safe Tools
A GAO audit found none of 24 major US agencies had fully done three basic steps to prepare for quantum-safe encryption, and only one had a complete inventory of vulnerable systems. The same day, Chrome 155 gave web developers built-in post-quantum algorithms and OpenSSH 10.6 added quantum-resistant login signatures; Surfshark says its WireGuard VPN is now post-quantum for authentication too. What each means, and why quantum-safe website certificates are a separate, later job.
Quantum and wallet keys: Europol says the risk is exposed keys, and Ethereum researchers urge a careful move
Europol’s cybercrime centre says the quantum threat to crypto sits with exposed wallet keys, not blockchains, and urges a phased upgrade now. Separately, Ethereum researcher Justin Drake calls for “bunker mode” over AI-driven maths, with Vitalik Buterin backing caution. What is analysis, what is opinion, and what has not been broken.
