This is an event in collaboration with University of Surrey’s Centre for Cyber Security (their ‘Future of Cyber’ series) and SASIG.
As quantum technology evolves, the cybersecurity landscape is undergoing a seismic shift, redefining how we protect digital assets. Once a theoretical concept, quantum computing is rapidly becoming a reality with profound security implications. This event will explore the dual-edged impact of quantum technology on cybersecurity, addressing both threats and opportunities. Quantum systems pose a significant risk to traditional encryption (potentially rendering it obsolete) while also driving advancements like quantum-resistant algorithms and quantum key distribution (QKD) that offer unprecedented data security.
We’ll examine the latest research and breakthroughs in quantum security, covering the risks of quantum decryption, the race for post-quantum cryptography, and practical QKD applications. Experts from industry and academia will share actionable insights to help organisations prepare for the quantum future. Whether you’re in cybersecurity, technology, or business, this event provides essential guidance to navigate the challenges and opportunities of the quantum era.
This event is open to members, non-member front-line cybersecurity professionals, and academics.
