Description

When exactly that moment will come is still uncertain, but when it does, many organizations and their customers will face a huge problem: Q-day. On this day, quantum computers will be able to crack current encryption algorithms in a short time. The consequences are unimaginable if we do not take action in time to update our encryption techniques to so-called Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC).

In this 2-day (post)-quantum cryptography training, you will discover what quantum computing is, learn to analyze quantum risks, and understand why they have a direct impact on security standards such as RSA and ECC. You will gain insight into the limitations of traditional encryption and learn why Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) is essential for the future.

Additionally, you will become familiar with the main PQC algorithms and standards from NIST and ENISA, and understand what new legislation such as NIS2 means for your organization. You will learn how to apply quantum-safe cryptography in practice, including tooling and best practices. Through a realistic case study, you will see how organizations can transition to PQC. After this training, you will know where you stand and what practical steps are needed to prepare your organization for the quantum era based on existing (inter)national guidelines to become quantum-proof/resilient.

The training provides comprehensive foundational knowledge and practical insights that are relevant for professionals at various levels within the IT and security sector.

Certification

There is no certification associated with this workshop. However, you will receive a certificate of participation indicating the number of training hours completed. This can be useful for maintaining (C)PE obligations for the upkeep of any other certifications.

Training Requirements

  • Beveiligingsanalisten, netwerkbeheerders, en systeembeheerders.
  • Professionals die werken met encryptie en beveiligingsalgoritmen.
  • Ontwikkelaars die verantwoordelijk zijn voor de implementatie van cryptografische methoden.
  • Managers die verantwoordelijk zijn voor de strategische planning en implementatie van IT-beveiligingsmaatregelen.
  • Projectmanagers die projecten leiden met betrekking tot IT-beveiliging en compliance.
  • Personen die verantwoordelijk zijn voor naleving van regelgeving en risicobeheer binnen organisaties.
  • Compliance officers en risicomanagers.
  • Leiders die strategische beslissingen moeten nemen over IT-beveiliging en de bescherming van bedrijfsgegevens.
  • Beleidsmakers die betrokken zijn bij het opstellen van beveiligingsbeleid en -procedures.
