We were once again delighted to be able to be at RSA Conference, San Francisco this year. RSAC brings together some of the top minds in cybersecurity, including tech innovators, CISOs, government officials and academics, and it’s always a great place to talk about post-quantum cryptography, with visitors from all around the world.
In fact, it was particularly encouraging to see the topic of PQC at an all-time high in terms of engagement and awareness. Our busy team was able to demonstrate and discuss the value of our PQ Ultra suite of products, and there were a number of key takeaways.
For example, one challenge is that crypto discovery is proving to be a challenge for CISOs, especially with conversations with the supply chain. It’s an interesting problem to solve as the disconnect of not necessarily knowing requirements can lead to the supply chain not moving as quickly as is required.
High performance is another area that sparked conversation at RSAC this year. It’s interesting to note how our ultra-fast PQPerform-Lattice product generated interest, alongside the clear requirement for updating existing devices in the field. Our ultra-fast, ultra-secure, ultra-small solutions certainly came across as products that are a key solution to a difficult problem.
We were also able to attend events run by our friends at Utimaco, Thales, and Deloitte, to talk HSM implementation and crypto discovery, and it was enlightening to hear different views about the challenges faced.
In addition, our resident podcaster and Business Development Director, Johannes Lintzen recorded some great new episodes for our podcast Shielded, where we explore how industries can future-proof defenses against the imminent threat of quantum computing. It’s well worth a listen. For our special RSA episode, head over to our YouTube channel (also available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
RSAC is always an enjoyable event, and it was fantastic to be at the forefront of the PQC conversation, helping organizations find solutions to the quantum threat in the face of rapidly accelerating technology.
