Jon Lau of A*STAR discusses quantum-safe readiness strategies, research-driven approaches to cyber resilience, and preparing organizations for the quantum computing threat landscape.
As quantum machines edge closer to cracking widely used encryption standards like RSA and ECC, attackers are already launching "harvest now, decrypt later" campaigns, banking on encrypted information to unlock once quantum power arrives.
Waiting is not an option: Leaders must act today to accelerate post-quantum readiness, future-proof cryptography, and champion new approaches to cyber governance before the quantum storm hits. This session clarifies the technical landscape, regulatory imperatives and urgent CISO actions essential for building quantum-resilient enterprises throughout Southeast Asia.
In this session, Jon Lau, CISO at A*STAR - Agency for Science, Technology and Research, will share insights on:
- "Harvest now, decrypt later": The evolving risk model;
- Vulnerabilities of RSA, ECC and other foundational protocols;
- Accelerating post-quantum readiness: practical steps for CISOs.
