Silicon Trust’s post-quantum seminar: videos and slides now online

Silicon Trust’s post-quantum seminar: videos and slides now online

Over 100 participants attended Silicon Trust’s online seminar “Post Quantum Cryptography – The Impact on Identity” on April 10. The speakers included Klaus Schmeh from Eviden Digital Identity, who spoke about the implementation of post-quantum cryptography on smartcards – an important topic, as current smartcard architectures are not designed for post-quantum crypto processes. Moderator Steve Atkins praised Schmeh’s “unique presentation style” in the announcement and was not disappointed. The long-time Eviden and cryptovision employee offered edutainment at the highest level – with slides in comic design, numerous animations and first-hand information. If you missed the seminar, you can watch the lectures and presentation slides online. The links can be found on the seminar website.

cryptovision GreenShield now with preview module for post-quantum cryptography

There is now an innovative extension for the cryptovision GreenShield email encryption software: a preview module for post-quantum cryptography. This enables PQC and composite signatures as well as PQC encryption with the CRYSTALS-Dilithium and CRYSTALS-Kyber algorithms, based on self-signed certificates. Both cryptovision GreenShield Mail and cryptovision GreenShield File support the new functions.

With the new feature, cryptovision GreenShield users can already evaluate post-quantum procedures today. Interested parties can be accompanied by Eviden Digital Identity during an evaluation.

Anyone interested can find out more at Omnisecure from January 22 to 24 in Berlin. A team from Eviden Digital Identity will be on site, so feel free to talk to us, for example during the two presentations we will be giving at this event.
