Quantum Threat to Security and the Need for Post-Quantum Cryptography
The capabilities of quantum computers are advancing rapidly. Quantum algorithms running on quantum computers are likely to be beneficial in enhancing R&D in several technology domains. However, they are a potential threat to security systems since they increase the probability of classical cryptography algorithms getting broken.

What cyberthreat does quantum computing pose, and why is there a need for new cryptography techniques based on the paradigm of post-quantum cryptography?
The session will cover:
- How potential threats to cryptography from quantum computers are real
- Why there is a need to plan quantum-safe migration of the existing security applications and networks
- Why is it good to have a quantum risk management approach and planning than regret the loss of sensitive data
