Florida Atlantic University Receives NIST Grant to Build South Florida Quantum Cybersecurity Workforce Ecosystem

Florida Atlantic University (FAU) received a $200,000 NIST grant to establish a quantum cybersecurity workforce consortium in South Florida. This initiative, in collaboration with D-Wave Quantum Inc., will focus on integrating quantum computing, cybersecurity, and critical energy infrastructure protection. The program will utilize FAU’s new D-Wave Advantage2 quantum system and aims to train a workforce to secure critical infrastructure against emerging post-quantum threats.
