We score our 2025 predictions in this second of two parts.
Root Causes 573: 2025 Predictions Scorecard - Part 1
1/28/2026 | 23 mins.
Every new year we make predictions for the year to come, and every year we go back and see how we did. This is the first of two parts scoring our 2025 predictions.
Root Causes 572: Quality of Entropy
1/26/2026 | 8 mins.
We discuss the idea that not all cryptographic entropy is equally "random" and potential consequences.
Root Causes 571: Will There Ever Be a Cryptographically Relevant Quantum Computer?
1/23/2026 | 9 mins.
We discuss the idea that it might be impossible to actually create a cryptographically relevant quantum computer and weigh in on this idea.
Root Causes 570: PQC Readiness at the Boardroom Level
1/21/2026 | 12 mins.
Repeat guest Chris McGrath shares what enterprises need to be doing now to stay on track for the NIST PQC deadline in 2030.
Digital certificate industry veterans Tim Callan and Jason Soroko explore the issues surrounding digital identity, PKI, and cryptographic connections in today's dynamic and evolving computing world. Best practices in digital certificates are continually under pressure from technology trends, new laws and regulations, cryptographic advances, and the evolution of our computing architectures to be more virtual, agile, ubiquitous, and cloud-based. Jason and Tim (and the occasional guest subject matter expert) will help you stay current on developments in this essential technology platform and to understand the whys and wherefores of popular Public Key Infrastructures.
