Kyndryl Confirms Converging Quantum, Data Sovereignty and Network Demands Expose Enterprise Readiness Gap
Kyndryl Readiness Report reveals misalignment between infrastructure investment and preparedness for converging modernization demands
NEW YORK, March 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Kyndryl (NYSE: KD), a leading provider of mission‑critical enterprise technology services, today released findings from its 2025-2026 Security and Networks Snapshot within the Kyndryl Readiness Report. The research shows that while organizations are increasing investments in next-generation infrastructure, many remain underprepared to address the combined impact of quantum computing, evolving data sovereignty requirements and aging network environments.
"Quantum threats, evolving data sovereignty rules and aging networks are not separate challenges; they are connected pressure points on the same system," said Paul Savill, Global Practice Leader, Cyber Security & Resiliency, Network & Edge, Kyndryl. "In the AI era, organizations engineered for agility, sovereignty awareness and quantum readiness will not only reduce risk, but also build the trust required to fuel innovation."
The report highlights that isolated approaches to quantum readiness, sovereignty-aware architecture and network modernization result in gaps between these domains that create operational blind spots and limit the resilience required to scale AI-driven business operations.
Key findings from the report include:
The findings, based on insights from 3,700 business and technology leaders across 21 countries, underscore a widening gap between where enterprises are investing and how prepared their core infrastructure is to manage emerging threats in a complex and increasingly regulated global environment.
