ReThink Everything! SIG: Post-Quantum Cryptography: What Tech Leaders Need to Act on Today

Organizer: SIM Jacksonville
Join an insightful session on the implications of quantum computing for enterprise technology leaders. As quantum computing evolves, the algorithms capable of breaking current encryption methods are already in existence. This session, led by Dr. Michael Tagscherer, Group CTO at Giesecke+Devrient, will provide a clear understanding of what post-quantum cryptography (PQC) means for organizations today. Attendees will learn about the risks associated with quantum computing, including the 'harvest now, decrypt later' threat, and the necessary steps to safeguard digital identities and communications. The discussion will also cover hybrid implementation strategies and real-world examples of systems at risk, including critical US Federal infrastructure. This is an essential opportunity for tech leaders to grasp the urgency of adapting to these emerging challenges and to understand what actions are required now and in the future.
