Securing data in its different states - at rest, in transit, and in use - is fundamental to both individuals and enterprises with cryptography as the foundation for the confidentiality and authenticity of data and communications.  This session will focus on the dynamics of quantum computing’s impact on data resiliency and why “Q Day” should be noted as a “Red Letter Day” in everyone’s calendar.

How does a leading quantum computer developer and provider see the CRQC horizon and how does it prepare for it? When and in what form will Q-Day take shape? How will CRQC affect the threat landscape and what will be the effect on organizational priorities? 

Join Fortinet and Google in answering these important questions to understand the potential risks associated with the availability of CRQCs and to gain insights on achieving quantum resiliency.

Should quantum-readiness be generally enforced by regulators? What are the key sectors/industries that MUST be regulated and why? Should regulations cover the entire CRQC supply chain? What regulations exist today and how are these expected to evolve/expand?

The criticality of data to the social, economic, and security backbones of modern society brings any potential structural risk to data cryptography to the attention of regulators. In this discussion we will gain a better understanding of the regulator’s insight into their role in ensuring that quantum-resiliency is achieved in the CRQC era.

An organization’s data estate is vast, distributed, and dynamic and achieving quantum-resiliency is a journey that must start today. This session will touch upon some of the key milestones and best practices organizations must adopt and implement to be quantum resilient when CRQCs are a reality.

Since data exists in 3 distinct states - at rest, in motion, and in use – ensuring its integrity through encryption requires a quantum-safe strategy that addresses the three key questions of WHEN to expect CRQC, WHAT are the requirements for securing data in all 3 states, and HOW it can be done today in anticipation of quantum reality in the near future.

In this session we will touch upon the different states of data, their vulnerabilities, where CRQC poses the greatest threat and what are today’s solutions that enable quantum resiliency.

Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) are two technologies available today to achieve quantum-resiliency for data in motion and are currently deployed today by Fortinet customers.

This session will touch upon two real-world use cases (QKD and PQC).
