The purpose of this event is to discuss the impact of quantum computers on cyber-security, the solutions to circumvent this threat, namely quantum cryptography and quantum-resistant cryptography, the challenges regarding the deployment of this new generation of cryptography, the standardization landscape.

Quantum computer is a time bomb on cyber-security. Data can be already stored and decrypted once a powerful-enough quantum computer is available. The recent announcement of Google on quantum supremacy is yet another major milestone towards building such large quantum computers. The trend is clear and organizations should start right now to protect their infrastructure against the quantum threat.
