Quantum computing is moving from research to relevance. Within this decade, sufficiently powerful quantum machines will be able to break the public-key cryptography that protects today's digital economy. Encrypted data captured today can already be stored and decrypted later. Regulators in Switzerland, the EU and the G7 are moving from observation to action.
Q-Day Basel brings two complementary forces into one room: QuantumBasel, Switzerland's centre of competence for quantum and AI, providing the strategic Q-Consulting; and Fortinet, one of the world's largest cybersecurity vendors, providing the execution and the quantum-safe security fabric. The afternoon takes participants from the threat picture to a concrete roadmap to deployed protection, anchored by a customer case and a regulatory perspective.
The event is industry-agnostic and aimed at C-level and senior decision-makers across Switzerland for whom information security is material: financial services, insurance, healthcare, life sciences, energy and utilities, telecommunications, transportation, public sector and critical industry. Working language is English.
