Who Moved My Rock? Post-Quantum Cryptography and Its Impact on Higher Education

Friday, May 03, 2024 | 9:30AM–10:15AM CT | Lakeshore, First Floor
Session Type: Breakout Session
Delivery Format: Presentation/Panel Session
The advent of Quantum Computers and the algorithms that can exploit their power (such as Shor's algorithm) may someday obsolete the encryption schemes that we use today. Are you ready? Join us as we investigate the issues faced in a Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) world, and what we can do in higher ed to prepare ourselves for it. We'll review the technology, impacts, challenges, solutions, and timelines for transitioning to Quantum-Safe Cryptography (QSC). Is a Quantum Apocalypse coming? Join this intereactive presentation and discussion to explore!
