Featured in Cybersecurity Insiders: Banking's Quantum Paradox and the Urgency of Post-Quantum Cryptography

Meg Gleason argues in Cybersecurity Insiders that long assessment cycles create inertia, and that banking control requires letting some of it go.

Cybersecurity Insiders recently published an expert analysis exploring the growing tension between control and agility in the race toward quantum-safe security.

In the article, “Banking’s Quantum Paradox: Why Control Requires Letting Go,” the written by Meg Gleason, Head of Product at QuSecure piece examines how traditional risk-management approaches in financial institutions may unintentionally delay meaningful progress toward post-quantum cryptography (PQC). As the threat of “steal now, decrypt later” attacks grows, prolonged assessment cycles and dependency-heavy strategies can create dangerous inertia.

The analysis calls on banking leaders and cybersecurity teams to rethink how they approach quantum resilience — shifting from extended discovery phases to practical, staged deployment of cryptographic agility solutions.

The article contributes to the broader industry dialogue on how financial institutions can proactively prepare for the quantum era while maintaining operational stability and regulatory alignment.
