Securing Manufacturing in the Post-Quantum Era (Q12c)

Quantum computing introduces significant cybersecurity threats, particularly for industries such as manufacturing, where it may affect intellectual property and operational systems. This talk will explore these emerging vulnerabilities and discuss the importance of proactive planning for a secure future. It will examine the transition to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and emphasize crypto agility—that is, the ability to adapt cryptographic algorithms rapidly. Attendees will gain insight into how organizations can prepare for a quantum-safe era and maintain resilient security against evolving quantum threats.
