Cyber Resilience | Post-quantum cryptography
Cyber Resilience | Post-quantum cryptography
session 8
Intro
Even though Quantum Computing systems are not yet powerful enough today to pose a real threat to our cryptography, criminal organisations are suspected of applying the principle of 'harvest today, decrypt later,' with all the dangers it poses to our critical infrastructure, official contracts, digital signatures, news reliability, and other vulnerabilities. In this session, we delve into 'Quantum-Safe' and 'Post-Quantum Cryptography' as defensive measures against these threats, which receive significant attention, particularly in the financial, telecommunications, energy, and government sectors. We explain how to establish a 'Quantum-Safe Implementation' project and which state-of-the-art technologies can lend a hand in this process.
