Cryptographic Discovery and Inventory: You Cannot Migrate What You Cannot See
Y2Q-01
You cannot migrate what you cannot see. This session covers cryptographic discovery and inventory as the mandatory first step of any PQC program: how to find every certificate, key, library and protocol in use across applications, servers, network traffic and third-party software; how to build a cryptographic bill of materials (CBOM); how to prioritise what to migrate first; and how to keep the inventory alive rather than letting it rot into a one-off spreadsheet.

Are We There Yet? Current Data & Identity Issues
Y2Q-02
Founder/CEO Aronetics Chief Technology Evangelist and Board Member Accure.AI
Before we even talk Post Quantum we have establish best practices to put in place to manage the current risks and to set the stage for Cryptographic Agility. How to evaluate your current methods and procedures and what are the steps to have in place when legacy systems must give way to better methods.

Emerging Threat Landscape, Timelines, Real Solution Options
Y2Q-03
Executive Vice President enQase
The threat landscape is changing, rapidly, and the last line of defense is encryption. Encryption that, according to government, industry, and academic experts, will fail in the next several years. This session explores how organizations can understand the threat landscape and NIST PQC and other timelines as they apply to them, including the facts on Harvest Now, and Decrypt Later (HNDL). We’ll discuss how to transform an emerging threat and unacceptable risk into a well understood, prioritized and logical journey to quantum-safe, compliant, and crypto-agile security.

Transitioning to PQC for IoT Products
Y2Q-04
VP, Technology & Standards CTA
Much of the work on post-quantum safe cryptography, including algorithm standardization, has considered enterprise use cases. Enterprises are looking to transition on-prem servers, data centers, laptops and smartphones to these algorithms.  But IoT devices like "smart" thermostats, baby monitors, video door locks and humidity sensors lack the CPU and memory footprint of enterprise systems.

Mosca's Theorem and Calculating Your Enterprise Risk Runway
Y2Q-05
Risk is often subjective based on personal attitudes rather than known facts. However, there are some objective measurements that can be made which should be used to realistically evaluate risk. Mosca's Theorem provides one of the most practical frameworks for understanding quantum risk. Simply stated: if the time required to migrate your organization to quantum-safe security exceeds the time remaining before quantum computers can compromise your encryption, then you are already behind schedule. Learn how to estimate their organization's quantum risk runway and determine whether immediate action is required to protect long-lived data assets.

Large-Scale Software Dependency Discovery and Network Performance Impact
Y2Q-06
Here is some good news, discovering your data’s vulnerability is easier than ever thanks to AI-powered tools. The bad news is that you may discover flaws that need to be updated. Whatever the result, the impact of quantum security threats is the decision to stay vigilant and continue to monitor and prioritize PQC security solutions.

Birds of a Feather “What Keeps You Up at Night?”
X-05
No presentations. No slides. Just candid conversation. Consider this a group therapy session where we discover similar concerns around our exposure to data breaches. Here is a safe place for discussion about liability concerns, industrial espionage, and ransomware exposure. This facilitated discussion creates a trusted environment where attendees can openly discuss concerns, compare approaches, and learn from the experiences of peers who are confronting similar challenges.

Strategy Workshop: Digital Quantum Transformation
Y2Q-08
When it comes to Y2Q there is more to do than just beefing up the Security handbook. Successfully navigating Y2Q requires participation from security teams, infrastructure leaders, compliance officers, procurement professionals, legal departments, executive leadership, and boards of directors. From the Board Room discussions of risk analysis to the Procurement RFP’s needing new compliance language, the system needs an overhaul Join us for this interactive workshop where you will learn from enterprise leaders who are actively building quantum readiness programs.

AI-Enabled PQC Migration: Using AI to Discover Cryptographic Vulnerabilities
Y2Q-09
This session looks at how AI can be used to accelerate the migration and implementation of PQC solutions. How does adding AI into cyber-security enable better decision making and keeps monitoring for vulnerabilities?Join us as we explore how AI-powered discovery and automation tools are helping organizations identify cryptographic vulnerabilities, prioritize migration efforts, assess risk, and continuously monitor their environments for emerging threats.

Thwarting the 'Harvest Now, Decrypt Later' (HNDL) Infrastructure Threat
Y2Q-10
The uncomfortable reality is that sensitive data may already be leaving your organization. What can we do to block the collection and storage of our encrypted data? Is the solution to simply hurry up and implement PQC or are there measures that can prevent copies of our data being gathered and stored? This session explores practical strategies for reducing HNDL exposure.
