Unhackable: How Government is Preparing for the Quantum Cyber Threat
As quantum computing advances, current encryption methods protecting DoD data may become vulnerable. This session explores the development of post-quantum cryptography (PQC)—new encryption standards designed to withstand quantum-enabled cyber threats. Experts will discuss timelines, challenges, strategies, and risks of delayed adoption for national security. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of quantum cyber risks and strategies for securing data.
Post-quantum Cryptography at Internet Scale
Government needs post-quantum cryptography (PQC) solutions that work at Internet scale, supporting legacy and modern systems that protect and support their citizens. In this session, we explore ways to advance post-quantum protection today, without waiting for specialized quantum hardware or compromising on security. We'll share real-world deployment statistics and discuss our vision for making PQC accessible across the entire Internet, not just for specialized systems.
Future-Proofing Government Networks with Quantum Tech
As quantum computing advances, federal IT must adapt to handle the huge processing demands and complex systems needed to support it. This session will explore the computing power, infrastructure, and architecture required for quantum readiness, from scalable data centers to next-gen cloud environments. Experts will discuss how agencies can build and optimize infrastructure to harness the potential of quantum technologies.
Beyond Silicon: The Chips That Will Define the Next Computing Era
Quantum computing relies on the development of scalable quantum chips, which harness quantum mechanics to solve problems beyond classical computing’s reach. This session explores the latest breakthroughs in quantum hardware, production challenges, and the role of government-industry collaboration in securing the quantum supply chain. Attendees will gain insights into quantum chip development, scaling hurdles, and national security implications.
Quantum Computing Unlocked: Why the Future Needs More Than Just Qubits
Quantum computing is often portrayed as a race for more qubits—but the real breakthrough lies in unlocking useful quantum systems. In this talk, we’ll go beyond the buzzwords to explore what it truly takes to make quantum computing impactful. From IBM’s pioneering work in utility-scale quantum systems to the development of open-source tools like Qiskit, we’ll uncover why speed, scale, and quality—not just qubit count—are essential.
We’ll examine how classical software, cloud accessibility, and a thriving global ecosystem of researchers and partners are driving quantum computing from theory into practice. With over $55 billion in global investment and thousands of published papers, the momentum is undeniable—but so is the need for clarity and rigor.
This is a story of innovation, collaboration, and the relentless pursuit of quantum advantage. Because in the future of computing, qubits are just the beginning.
Silent, Secure, and Quantum-Powered: The Future of Communications
Quantum technology is already reshaping secure communications. This session examines Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), satellite-based quantum links, and deployable quantum communication systems for public sector use. Experts will examine the promise of real-time, tamper-proof information exchange and how it might transform operations. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of quantum-secure communications, military applications, and the roadmap for adoption.
