I'm guessing they can say the methods of encryption are "1 way" ie unreversable, and therefore quantum resistant (the way that quantum solves equations).
Not quite, no encryption is truly irreversible (that’s the point). We’ve built quantum computers and we know how they work. We found weaknesses in the prime number generation that powers most encryption, so we’ve built around that.
