GAO PQC Audit

US Agencies Had Until May 2023 to Inventory Quantum-Vulnerable Cryptography. Auditors Found One of 24 Inventories Complete.

Washington called the federal inventory of quantum-vulnerable cryptography comprehensive in 2023. An audit made public on October 6 checked the inventories against agencies' own records and asked sampled agencies for evidence. One passed, and most sampled entries had no documentation ...

SAMA Saudi Arabia Circular Quantum

SAMA Makes Quantum Risk a Standing Item for Saudi Bank Risk Committees. Its December 31 Inventory Deadline Is Too Tight for Banks Starting From Zero.

SAMA asks Saudi banks for cryptographic inventory procedures that are accurate and comprehensive. An inventory built from interviews, the quickest kind to buy, cannot show either. With measured coverage and graded evidence, an examiner can check both ...

Europe’s Chips Act 2.0 Keeps Quantum Pilot Lines but Leaves Quantum Fabrication Out of Its Strategic-Project Priorities

The European Quantum Industry Consortium says the Chips Act 2.0 proposal names quantum foundries without an instrument to build one. I checked its reading of the annexes and set it against what the US government funded in September ...

NIS2, DORA, and the EU Post-Quantum Roadmap

If you are a CISO under NIS2 or DORA, you are already expected to run a risk-management system that tracks material, evolving threats - and to implement “state‑of‑the‑art” controls appropriate to the risk. The EU’s PQC roadmap is effectively saying: quantum is now one of those evolving threats you must govern.  The most important conceptual shift for leadership teams is this: ...

How the EU Can Capture the Benefits of Quantum Computing

The European Union has entered the global quantum race with determination - aiming not just to excel in research, but to translate breakthroughs into economic and strategic benefits. In July 2025, the European Commission unveiled the Quantum Europe Strategy, a roadmap to make Europe a “quantum industrial powerhouse” by 2030. This strategy acknowledges Europe’s historic strength in quantum science - ...

Deep-Tech Commercialization Challenges in the EU

Europe is a global powerhouse in deep-tech research - from quantum breakthroughs to biotech - yet it struggles to turn this scientific excellence into market success. In fact, Europe’s deep-tech sector holds immense potential (estimated at €8 trillion) but lags behind the US in funding and commercialization, with only a fraction of innovations translating into market-ready products. European startups produce impressive ...
