Quantum resistant timelines meaning for the industry

I am not a quantum computing expert, but I recently was in a meeting (work in tech) and one of my engineers mentioned there are some new expectations about encryption algorithms to be quantum resistant. I took that as a potential signal that QC might be closer than we think and I am thinking of investing heavily on it. But are those two things related? What are the general timelines of this tech being ubiquitous? submitted by /u/Interesting-Gap-8942 [link] [comments]
