Quantum computers pose an imminent threat to AI infrastructure through Shor's algorithm, which will break current RSA and ECC encryption. Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) implementing NIST post-quantum standards like ML-KEM and ML-DSA provide a quantum-safe root of trust for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. A hybrid strategy wraps legacy RSA signatures with post-quantum protection, while PKCS#11 integration enables HSMs to sign context packets without exposing private keys. The transition requires inventorying high-stakes AI data flows, phasing in quantum-safe HSM blades, and training security teams to recognize PQC-specific anomalies before stable quantum machines arrive.
