Future iterations of quantum computers will possess the processing power to crack the asymmetric cryptographic algorithms that serve as the foundation of corporate, cloud and internet security. As a cybersecurity professional in charge of maintaining the integrity of critical infrastructures, you need to understand how assess your risk and how to prepare to the threat of quantum computers.
Utimaco and the Secure Technology Alliance are partnering to hold a virtual education session to explore this emerging risk and outline best practices for a quantum-safe IT infrastructure. World leading experts on post-quantum cryptography will share their expertise and provide concrete recommendations on how to best assess your risk and prepare ahead of the post quantum era:
- The threat posed by quantum computers to the digital economy, including the timeline and key milestones
- Advancements in corporate and academic research to counter the threat of quantum computing
- Best practices to protect critical infrastructure ahead of the post-quantum era
The education session, “Applied Crypto Symposium – Cybersecurity in the Age of Quantum Computing” will be held December 9, 2020 from 12-2:15pm Eastern Time (9-11:15am Pacific Time).
Learn from world leading experts in Post Quantum Crypto
- Lily Chen, Mathematician at NIST (US National Institute of Standards & Technology)
- Brian LaMacchia, Head of Security & Cryptography at Microsoft Research
- Michele Mosca, Founder of the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo
- Dieter Bong, Director Product Management at Utimaco
- Randy Vanderhoof, Founder Secure Technology Alliance
This session is for cybersecurity professionals with an interest in encryption, cryptography, data protection, IAM, PKI, key distribution and management, and responsibilities related to the protection of critical infrastructure in federal government and public sector, aerospace & defense, financial services, payments, IoT networks, automotive and telecommunications.
