Google, Quantum Attacks, and ECDSA: Why There’s No Need to Panic and Why Preparation Matters Now

Over the past several weeks, we’ve seen growing discussion across the industry about Google’s latest publications on quantum computing and cryptography. In some corners, those discussions have quickly escalated into claims that widely deployed elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), including ECDSA, is on the verge of collapse. Customers are understandably asking questions: Has ECDSA been broken? Are today’s systems suddenly at risk? Do migration timelines need to change?
