Yonsei University is set to upgrade its on-premises IBM Quantum System One facility with a next-generation Nighthawk quantum processing unit (QPU) by November 2026, replacing its current 127-qubit IBM Eagle QPU with a 120-qubit Nighthawk QPU. This upgrade will make Yonsei the second facility worldwide to adopt IBM's Nighthawk QPU, following the tech giant's own facility. The Nighthawk QPU is expected to provide enhanced quantum computing capabilities, further advancing the field of quantum research1. This development is significant in the context of quantum computing's potential impact on cryptography, as advancements in quantum technology are narrowing the timeline for cryptographic migration to post-quantum cryptography (PQC). As a result, the urgency for organizations to plan and implement PQC strategies is increasing. The upgrade at Yonsei University underscores the need for practitioners to prioritize quantum-resistant cryptographic protocols to ensure long-term security.
