Quantum Safe Crypto / English

You want to delve into quantum-safe cryptography, including Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC)

You want to learn what the effects of the quantum computer are on cryptography and in your situation, and how you can respond to them. You are responsible for making and keeping applications and systems in your organization quantum safe

Various parties worldwide are working on the development of quantum computers . These quantum computers work in a different way than regular computers and can therefore solve certain problems much more efficiently. Contemporary cryptography is resistant to ordinary computers, but can be cracked with a sufficiently strong quantum computer . To protect your applications and systems against this, you will have to migrate to quantum-safe cryptography in a timely manner.

In this course you will be introduced to the technical cryptographic backgrounds in an accessible way to understand the impact of the quantum computer on cryptography. You will be informed about the latest developments and insights. After following this course, you will know how to determine the impact in your situation and what steps you need to take to be prepared for the arrival of the quantum computer .
