Quantum Safe Computing for Telecommunications
summary
Panel lays out a practical roadmap: industry consortium work with Vodafone, IBM and Nokia runs a Post Quantum Telco Network Task Force, publishes a heat‑map prioritization and prototypes automated cryptographic discovery that finds crypto in E‑NodeB→SGW flows and indexes where to act first. NIST PQC finalists (Dilithium, Kyber, Falcon) appear imminently; regulators set 2030–2033 compliance windows. Teams find surprising scale — dozens to thousands of keys and ~20 operators engaged — and recommend iterative proofs‑of‑concept, inventory, crown‑jewel prioritization and crypto‑agility.
