Advances in quantum computing are predicted to break the cryptographic schemes we rely on today. But how accurate is that prediction, really?

Andy Smith cuts through the noise on post-quantum cryptography, covering what information security practitioners actually need to know about where the field stands in 2026 — which claims hold up under scrutiny, and which do not.

The session closes on the practical part: the actions worth starting now to prepare for a post-quantum future, and the ones that can safely wait.

Ideal for security architects, CISOs, cryptography and PKI owners, and practitioners who need to separate real post-quantum risk from vendor hype.
