Trapped ion quantum computing has the potential to revolutionize computational paradigms. As the adoption of this technology grows, so does the need for stringent scrutiny of its involvement in cybersecurity, especially when it has implications in national defense or critical infrastructure. While trapped ion quantum computing offers transformative capabilities, it is vital to carefully examine the potential vulnerabilities associated with its use and patch them before implementing this powerful technology. In this paper, we examine the potential vulnerabilities in trapped ion quantum computing systems and propose a framework for addressing them. This framework includes risk assessment for evaluating vulnerabilities, threat modeling for identifying exploits, and prevention and mitigation for reducing their impact.
