As digital transformation accelerates, the cybersecurity world is going through a critical juncture due to AI-powered attacks and the emerging quantum computing technologies. According to experts' analyses for 2025, rapidly increasing data breaches and tightening legal regulations are pushing companies to view data privacy not just as a procedure, but as a mandatory corporate strategy. In particular, the increasing personal responsibility of company executives for leaked data is rapidly growing the demand for privacy-enhancing technologies that protect data at every stage.

One of the most insidious threats in the sector is the "steal today, decrypt it when quantum technology arrives" mentality of cybercriminals. The fact that traditional passwords could be broken in seconds by next-generation computers has already prompted companies to take action. Organizations are now turning to systems that prioritize security from the encoding stage, such as Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), which can keep data encrypted not only during storage but also during active processing. In short, 2025 will be a period in which innovative companies that foresee these new threats early and prepare their infrastructure for the quantum age will survive.

Some of the precautions we need to take to protect against these types of attacks include:

• Do not open emails from untrusted sources.

• Use multi-factor authentication (MFA).

• Keep your system updated to the latest version at all times.

• Monitor login logs regularly.

• Track the security of mobile devices.
