Security is a big issue these days. Not only for crypto assets but for any kind of assets.
There are more and more scams every day, cellphones and email are open doors to criminals. Information with our data is included in thousands of lists traded on the dark web. I was a victim of ledger e-commerce was cracked several years ago.
I remember in the early days of Facebook, some users were posting about their vacations, and thieves used that info to get into their homes to steal their stuff.
We need to learn basic security to protect ourselves. I do not answer any calls from hidden callers and directly send to the trash any email from sources I do not directly know. And of course no links or QR scans anymore.
Quantum is already here and will eventually evolve for the good and the bad, but crypto security will also evolve, the same way cell phones now warn you about scam calls or SMS. It is sad to have to spend part of your time dealing with that, but it is not any different than being careful about your hadback or camera when walking on the streets of a big town during your vacation. We used to feel safe if we had a nice security door on the house and gates on the windows, now many people contracts an alarm which warns the police in the event someone tries to snick into our place and digital "doors" have to be protected as well as physical ones.
