Summarize this article with:
ETSI/IQC Quantum Safe Cryptography Conference (QSC), 16-18 June, OttawaID Quantique will participate in the ETSI/IQC Quantum Safe Cryptography Conference (QSC), taking place June 16–18, 2026 in Ottawa, Canada.This event brings together global experts from industry, government, and academia to address one of the most pressing challenges in cybersecurity: how to secure today’s data against future quantum threats. Organized by ETSI, a leading standards body for information and communication technologies, the conference focuses on advancing quantum-safe cryptography and enabling a smooth transition from current encryption methods to future resilient approaches.The program covers key topics such as quantum-safe migration strategies, standardization, risk management, and real-world deployment scenarios. It brings together stakeholders from sectors including telecommunications, government, finance, and critical infrastructure—where long-term data protection, compliance, and operational continuity are essential. A strong emphasis is placed on collaboration and interoperability to ensure trusted and scalable security frameworks.Our participation reflects our long-standing commitment to supporting the transition to quantum-safe security. As an active contributor to ETSI working groups on Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and Quantum-Safe Cryptography (QSC), we help shape standards that enable organizations to adopt future-proof approaches to data protection.On site, Bruno Huttner, Senior Staff Scientist at ID Quantique, will moderate Panel 3 during Day 1: “Quantum-safe migration for critical infrastructures: Realities, risks, and opportunities.” This panel will explore the practical challenges organizations face when protecting sensitive, long-lived data and ensuring resilience against emerging threats.As quantum computing progresses, the risk of “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks is becoming increasingly relevant—turning quantum-safe migration into a business-critical priority rather than a theoretical concern. Organizations must act today to ensure long-term confidentiality and maintain trust in their digital infrastructure.We welcome the opportunity to engage with stakeholders seeking to better understand their exposure, align with evolving standards, and define a clear path toward quantum-safe security.Book a MeetingID Quantique SA | Rue Eugène-Marziano 25 1227 Acacias - Genève | SwitzerlandT+41 22 301 83 71 F +41 22 301 83 79 info@idquantique.comCopyright © 2026 ID Quantique | Website Terms of Use | Privacy Statement | Cookie Policy | Contact Promise | UK Tax Policy DisclosureThank you for your interest in our eBook.
