Is it? I've generally understood that most symmetric cryptography like AES is safe. QC only gives exponential speedups on some specific problems. The most is that naively you might want to double your keysize to get the same protection, something that the article points out is unecessary because that naive approach assumes that QC is like classical computing but with extra magic, as opposed to having its own tradeoffs.
