Welcome to the Quantum Security Community
This community brings together people working across PQC migration, crypto-agility, Q-Day readiness, CRQC timelines, quantum-safe architectures, standards, quantum sensing, OT/CNI security, and the security of emerging quantum technologies.
To keep discussions high-signal, professional, and welcoming, we follow the guidelines below.
1. Be Professional, Evidence-Based, and Respectful
We’re a global community of practitioners.
Please keep all discussions:
-
factual
-
constructive
-
respectful
-
technically grounded
No personal attacks, sarcasm disguised as expertise, or dismissiveness.
We welcome disagreement - but challenge ideas, not people.
2. No Hype, No Fearmongering
Quantum security already suffers from misinformation.
This community is committed to:
-
no hype
-
no exaggerated timelines
-
no fear-based messaging
-
no vendor scare tactics
If you speculate, say so clearly.
3. Keep Discussions Vendor-Neutral
You may reference tools, libraries, or real-world experiences, but:
-
No sales pitches
-
No product promos
-
No affiliate links
-
No disguised marketing
If you represent a vendor, disclose it.
4. Stay on Topic
Each category has a purpose.
Please post in the most relevant one:
-
PQC migration
-
Crypto-agility
-
Q-Day readiness
-
CRQC capability
-
Quantum-safe architectures
-
OT/CNI security
-
Quantum sensing
-
Cryptocurrency quantum risk
-
Standards & regulation
-
Research & papers
-
Tools & resources
-
Secure quantum computing
-
Events
-
Jobs
If you’re unsure, use General — moderators will help move topics.
5. Share Knowledge Generously
Many members are early in their journey.
Helpful contributions include:
-
migration experiences
-
architecture sketches
-
learned lessons
-
reading suggestions
-
tools & templates
-
regulatory insights
-
failure stories
-
models, frameworks, diagrams
The more the community shares, the stronger we all become.
6. Protect Confidential Information
Do not share:
-
proprietary data
-
internal architecture diagrams
-
client information
-
non-public vulnerabilities
-
unpublished research without permission
If in doubt → redact or anonymise.
7. No Trading, Investment, or Speculation Talk
In the Cryptocurrency Quantum Security category:
Protocol security
Signature schemes
Migration paths
Timelines
Attack models
No price predictions
No trading chat
No investment advice
This is a technical security community - not a crypto-market community.
8. Respect Moderators and Housekeeping
Moderators may:
-
move topics
-
close threads
-
remove off-topic / low-effort posts
-
remind members of guidelines
-
ban repeat offenders
This ensures quality and safety for all.
9. Use Tags Sparingly
Tags are for cross-cutting themes, not category duplication.
Examples:
-
tnfl
-
qec
-
nist
-
blockchain
-
hybrid-architecture
-
ot
If unsure, skip tags.
10. Be Inclusive
The community spans:
FS, telco, cloud, CNI, cybersecurity, cryptography, quantum research, policy, academia, hardware labs, startups, national agencies, and more.
Be welcoming.
Be patient.
Assume good intent.
Help others learn.
11. Anonymous or Pseudonymous Participation Is Allowed
Quantum-security work often intersects with:
-
sensitive internal programs
-
regulated environments
-
government policy
-
proprietary labs
-
NDAs
Pseudonyms are fine - as long as behavior remains professional.
12. Report Issues Quickly
If you see:
-
spam
-
misinformation
-
aggressive behavior
-
dangerous advice
-
compliance/policy violations
-
security vulnerabilities
-
vendor trolling
Please report it (flag) or contact moderators privately.
We’ll act quickly.
