Currently, many large companies and famous
universities (IBM, Google, Microsoft, MIT) are working to build large quantum
computers. Their technical improvements are so promising, that it seems
plausible that large quantum computers will be built in a foreseeable future.
Once this happens, it will be possible to break many of the encryption systems
in use today. This can lead to questions such as: What encryption systems are
still secure? Which encryption systems need to be replaced?
In this talk, you will hear Freja Elbro from DTU describe what systems are
still secure and which need to be replaced. She will also explain some of the
possible replacements and discuss pros and cons of the different systems. Freja is presenting at Driving IT 2022 and Driving
IT is IDA IT's big annual 4-track conference with 40 different speakers, where
all the important and future things about IT are addressed in one day.
Freja Elbro presents ‘Quantum
safe cryptography’ at Driving IT 2022
Freja has a Msc in Mathematics and are currently PhD student in code-based
cryptography (one of the types of cryptography believed to be secure against
quantum computers).
Freja is one of the speakers at Driving IT 2022 that has been organized
by a committee of IT professionals. At the conference each speaker was divided
into different topics. The topics are:
- Keynotes Speakers
- Privacy/Security
- AI/Kvante
- Cool
- UX Design
- Grøn IT
Freja is presenting at driving IT within the topic category ‘AI/Kvante’.
