Open cryptography standards: transitioning to quantum-safe
Tuesday, April 30th, 2019
10:00 AM – 13:30 PM
Level39, One Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London E14 5AB
Secure Chorus will be hosting a member-only Thought Leadership Platform (TLP), addressing the transitioning of open cryptography standards to quantum-safe. The interactive session will be led by Mike Brown, Co-founder and CTO of ISARA Corporation and will focus on Lattice-based cryptography which is one of the most promising areas in quantum-resistant cryptography. It will further explore the replacement of MIKEY-SAKKE with a quantum-safe alternative, taking into consideration the implications for protocol designers.
Agenda:
| 10:00 AM – 10:10 AM | Welcome Remarks |
