A pint of quantum-safe cryptography!

Sebastian de Haro gave during the Amsterdam Pint of Science Festival a sold out presentation at the brewery Poesiat & Kater. The enthusiastic audience learnt, with a beer nearby, more on the societal impact of quantum-safe cryptography. 'As the potential risks and consequences of cybersecurity breaches by future quantum computers are devastating, governments and organisations are already preparing for a transition to quantum-safe cryptography. However, as the development of other technologies illustrates, after an initial period of excitement, overhyped expectations can trigger disappointment and even withdrawal of resources, invoking technology winters that freeze further advancements.'
