Synopsis

As quantum computing approaches its tipping point, traditional data security methods are becoming increasingly vulnerable. In this session, we will explore how quantum computing transforms cybersecurity landscapes and what that means for the future of cyber strategies. Through real-world examples and actionable insights, we’ll examine the steps organisations must take to prepare for the post-quantum era and the practical challenges of transitioning to quantum-resistant solutions.

Designed to balance technical depth with accessibility, this talk will be approachable to a wide range of professionals, from technical experts to strategic decision-makers.

Key topics to be covered include:

  1. The shifting paradigm of data security and cryptography in particular, and its implications on cyber strategy strategy
  2. How quantum computing threatens classical cryptography and what this means for the security of businesses, governments, and individuals.
  3. Step to uplift the cryptographic stance of organisations to make them quantum safe.
  4. This presentation offers a forward-looking perspective on the future of cybersecurity, offering concrete strategies to safeguard sensitive information in a quantum-powered world.
