Hackers & Guards: PQC

Some techies still think “post-quantum” means after lunch — others just quietly hope AES has a secret second life.
Our PQC edition turns looming quantum doom into a fierce card battle of wits, encryption keys, and algorithms.
The result?

A tech team that’s quantum-ready, governance savvy, and two steps ahead of the 2035 timeline.

We allocate 2% of our revenue towards Educational & Science Awareness Initiatives.​

Animation Why? How? What?

Why a PQC card game?
Because understanding and acting on post-quantum risks now protects your data, reputation, and revenue, before today’s decisions become tomorrow’s liabilities.

How will the PQC card game work?
Two teams, Hackers and Guards, face off in a fast paced trivia game led by umpires, combining teamwork, strategy and learning to master post quantum cryptography.

What can you do with a PQC card game?
Use it in team sessions to build awareness and support the global 2035 migration to post quantum cryptography.

5 Emerging Risks for C-levels of Organizations Handling Sensitive Data in a Post-Quantum World​

  1. Harvest now, Decrypt later
    Cybercriminals are collecting your encrypted data today,  waiting for the moment they can crack it. That data holds your competitive edge, client trust, and future earnings.

  2. Every unprotected connection invites financial risk

    Sensitive data in transit—contracts, deals, reports, can be intercepted. A single breach can lead to lawsuits, fines, or share price drops.

  3. Live data exposure leaks value and control

    Real-time data powers your decisions, pricing, and customer insights. If it’s unprotected while in use, you risk data leaks that silently erode your advantage.

  4. Outdated security quietly builds expensive risk

    Delaying modernisation doesn’t save money—it stacks up hidden costs, operational risk, and reputational damage. The longer you wait, the more it will cost to catch up.

  5. Your ecosystem holds unseen financial liabilities

    Partners, tools, platforms, all can silently weaken your data security. If they’re not ready for future threats, neither are you—and you’ll be the one paying the price.
