A new, invisible threat is putting the entire global financial system at risk. As quantum computers advance, they risk breaking the encryption protecting all our data, a risk amplified by "harvest now, decrypt later" tactics already in use by bad actors.

Christophe Barel, Managing Director for APAC at FS-ISAC, joins us to explain why this is an urgent risk, not a distant IT problem.

We discuss:

• The "harvest now, decrypt later" threat and why it's an urgent business risk.

• The 3 drivers of "crypto procrastination" and why leaders are delaying action.

• The global timeline and 2035 endpoint for adopting post-quantum cryptography.

• FS-ISAC's four-stage transition framework: Initiation, Discovery, Deployment, and Exit.

• Why this is a strategic investment in resilience, not just a cost centre.
