Quantum readiness is now about execution. In this episode of Shielded: The Last Line of Cyber Defense, host Jo Lintzen speaks with Carolina Polito, a researcher at the Center for European Policy Studies and a PhD candidate in international relations. Carolina explains why post-quantum migration is less of a cryptographic problem and more of an organizational challenge. She outlines how institutions should move from inventory to prioritization, how to evaluate vendor readiness, and why coordination across governance, procurement, and standards will shape the transition. She also shares where organizations can begin without overcomplicating the process.
