Original: Healthcare organizations are underprepared for quantum computing threats

Healthcare organizations are poorly positioned to defend against quantum computing threats, according to a Healthcare Dive report. Quantum computers are expected to eventually break widely used encryption, putting sensitive patient data at risk through 'harvest now, decrypt later' strategies. Experts are urging hospitals and health systems to begin migrating to post-quantum cryptography, but most have yet to take action.

Why now: Quantum computing's potential to break healthcare encryption is a growing cybersecurity concern as US government post-quantum migration deadlines approach.
