## The quantum threat is already here
Adversaries can harvest encrypted data today and decrypt it later when quantum computers arrive. This harvest now, decrypt later technique means your current data is at risk from future technology.

> if a key exchange is not quantum-resistant, encrypted traffic captured today can be decrypted when Q-Day arrives later
## Aviatrix launches quantum protection
Aviatrix released Harvest and Decrypt Protection, claiming it's the first post-quantum protection that encrypts and governs workloads susceptible to harvesting across all network types.
## One policy, one enforcement point
The new tool delivers post-quantum encryption and communication governance as a single policy in software, working across traditional networks, multicloud, and cloud infrastructure.
## Government deadlines are already set
Governments have set compliance timelines for post-quantum cryptography. Federal civilian agencies must file migration plans by October twenty-second, and CISOs are actively preparing.
## Tech giants have different timelines
Google and Microsoft committed to full quantum readiness by twenty twenty-nine. Amazon Web Services has no equivalent target, instead directing customers to regulatory deadlines.
## Aviatrix is ahead of the curve
Aviatrix shipped Harvest Protection a month before the federal deadline, claiming it's ahead of major cloud providers in delivering quantum-safe distributed infrastructure.
## Current protection is uneven
Major cloud and network providers are preparing for post-quantum cryptography, but progress varies by product category. Some have updates for traditional networks but not for multicloud or cloud infrastructure.
## Hardware refresh isn't enough
Simply upgrading network hardware won't protect data traveling between sites and clouds. Cloud services and cross-cloud connections often lack devices to upgrade.
## New thinking required
Enterprises need a new architectural approach that provides crypto agility across all networks. Checking boxes on regulations isn't enough to build truly secure infrastructure.
## Protect data everywhere it travels
The key is thinking about data protection wherever it transits, across traditional enterprise networks, cloud networks, and multicloud connections, not just at the perimeter.
## Distributed software approach works
Aviatrix Cloud Native Security Fabric is quantum-safe and uses a distributed software-based approach to manage post-quantum cryptography readiness across the entire networking estate.
## Act now, not later
Waiting for government deadlines means playing catch-up. Enterprises should start implementing quantum-resistant protection today to stay ahead of the coming surge in compliance demands.
## Key takeaway

Encrypted data captured today can be decrypted by quantum computers later, so enterprises need quantum-resistant protection now, not after government deadlines.
