Eviden presentation on post-quantum migration at the MCTTP in Munich

Eviden presentation on post-quantum migration at the MCTTP in Munich

How can an organization migrate to post-quantum cryptography as smoothly as possible? At the MCTTP conference in Munich, Simon Ulmer and Klaus Schmeh from Eviden Digital Identity provided answers in an unusual way. Their presentation in science fiction design was one of the highlights of the event, which took place on September 18 and 19. The audience learned that, among other things, a crypto inventory and a risk assessment are necessary for a proper migration. The transition to post-quantum cryptography for smartcards and embedded systems will be particularly challenging.

Just one week after Mindshare Simon and Klaus showed once again that presentations by Eviden Digital Identity are pretty much anything but boring.
