Lightning Talk:
The Practical Path to Post-Quantum Security
Quantum computing is set to break today’s encryption, creating urgent risks for financial institutions. This session explores how organizations can transition from classical cryptography to post-quantum security using hybrid approaches, improved cryptographic visibility, and emerging compliance frameworks.
Revan cover practical steps to become quantum-ready without disrupting existing systems, with a focus on balancing security, compliance, and operational continuity.
What you’ll learn:
• Why the quantum threat is already relevant today, not just in the future
• How classical encryption (RSA, ECC) will be impacted
• Why hybrid post-quantum cryptography is the safest transition path
• The role of cryptographic visibility (CBOM) in managing risk
• How regulations like DORA and NIS2 are accelerating adoption
• How early adoption can strengthen security and create competitive advantage
