IBM Explores the Future of Cryptography
Few businesses would argue that their IT systems wouldn’t benefit from additional security measures, particularly in the wake of last year’s major cyberattack against the US government and other institutions via flaws in popular security and cloud services. The question surrounding security enhancements, encryption in particular, has always been: at what cost?

Efforts to lower such costs have been met with success in recent years, and new innovations on the horizon will soon offer organizations better ways to protect themselves from both current and emerging cybersecurity threats. IBM conveyed that message during its recent “Future of Cryptography” online event, citing advances in three critical emergin
