Post-Quantum Crypto - Today’s Defense Against Tomorrow’s Quantum Hacker

Explore the critical topic of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) in this 25-minute conference talk by Christian Paquin from 0xdade. Gain insights into the looming threat quantum computers pose to current cryptographic systems and learn about quantum-safe alternatives being developed to address this challenge. Discover lessons from prototype integrations of PQC into real-world protocols and applications like TLS, SSH, and VPN across various devices. Get introduced to the Open Quantum Safe project and related open-source forks of popular security tools. Watch a demonstration of a full PQC TLS 1.3 connection and understand how to start experimenting with PQC to protect applications and services against future quantum threats. Benefit from the expertise of Christian Paquin, a crypto specialist from Microsoft Research's Security and Cryptography team, as he shares his knowledge on post-quantum cryptography, privacy-enhancing technologies, and the intersection of AI and security.
