Quantum computers capable of breaking today's encryption may still be years away — but the attack on your data has likely already begun. Threat actors are harvesting encrypted network traffic right now, storing it for the day a quantum computer can unlock it. By then, it will be too late to act.
The good news: with CommonCryptoLib 8.6.2, post-quantum key exchange is now available for S/4HANA Public Cloud, Private Cloud, and On-Premise — and if your system meets the prerequisites, it activates automatically. No configuration required.
In this post, we explain why the quantum threat is urgent today, how SAP's hybrid post-quantum key exchange protects your data in transit, and what to watch out for when connecting to third-party systems.
