ETSI and the Institute for Quantum Computing are pleased to announce the 10th edition of their joint event, the ETSI/IQC Quantum Safe Cryptography Conference.
This year, the event will be hosted physically by the Centre for Quantum Technologies, National University of Singapore. on 14-16 May 2024 in Singapore.
We increasingly rely on cyber technologies, and hence are ever more vulnerable to cyber-attacks. As progress toward a cryptographically relevant quantum computer advances, these attack vectors grow and the imperative to prepare for a transition to quantum secure technologies continues to increase.
In response, standardization efforts are accelerating; the initial NIST PQC standards are due in 2024, and our working groups here at ETSI are active in evaluating these and how they will fit into existing protocols, applications and public-key infrastructures. Solutions are therefore starting to become commercially available, best practices are being developed and shared, and the ability to transition in a secure and cost-effective way continues to increase. This is a continually evolving and complex journey and much remains to be understood and navigated.
Designed for members of the business, government, and research communities with a stake in cryptographic standardization, this forward-looking conference will facilitate the knowledge exchange and collaboration required to transition cyber infrastructures and business practices to make them safe in an era with quantum computers. It aims to showcase both the most recent developments from industry and government and cutting-edge potential solutions coming out of the most recent research.
The Conference is split into two very different parts:
14 May: Executive Track
designed for business executives, including CEOs, CTOs and CISOs. The executive track will outline the state of the quantum threat and quantum risk management via various Keynote speeches and high-level discussions on government actions and approaches, on the shift to quantum-safe cryptography in the financial sector and on the transition to a quantum secure cryptographic infrastructure viewed from various angles.
Participate in the pre-event survey and share your view now to input the discussions in the Executive Track!
15 - 16 May 2024: Technical Track
will dive into the greater details and specifics of how new cryptographic technologies are being developed to ensure security in a post-quantum era. We will look at the efforts taking place worldwide, such as the security of existing solutions, standards initiatives and practical deployments taking place today.
The coffee breaks will also feature poster sessions of even more cutting-edge research projects.
Attendance is open to all and free of charge upon registration The event having reached maximum hosting capacity, registration is closed.
Why should one attend?This conference is a perfect opportunity to determine your next steps, learn from experts and network with others going through the process. Nowhere else can you encounter the latest research in such an actionable way, with specific tracks for both executives and technical experts.
Come along to learn more about this rapidly evolving field and meet the key players behind these important maturing technologies.
