A recent study by NowSecure, evaluating over 136,000 mobile apps, reveals that 97% lack Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), leaving them vulnerable to future quantum attacks. This "mobile gap" is largely due to reliance on third-party SDKs and compiled libraries that traditional security scans miss. With regulatory deadlines approaching (e.g., US federal agencies by 2030-2031), organizations urgently need to prioritize PQC migration for mobile applications.
