Description

For TechNet Baltimore, join CompTIA, Vectra AI, GDIT, and NIST for a discussion of how traditional IT and cybersecurity workflows and approaches are changing in the face of AI and Post-Quantum Computing. We will discuss topics such as:
Analyzing today's vulnerable tech footprint: The impact of Post-Quantum Cryptography and AI on how we do things today
AI: Hunter or hunted? A look at the attack lifecycle and today's hybrid environments - traditional and AI-based approaches
Migrating to post-quantum encryption
How AI and Post-Quantum are affecting traditional pen testing, analytics, and attack surface paradigms
A practical overview of post-quantum issues and readiness: What we've learned from past rollouts
Analyzing your problem surface for post-quantum readiness
Upskilling opportunities
This session will last two hours. The first hour will be individual presentations from Vectra, GDIT, and NIST. The second hour will be a panel. James Stanger will act as emcee and moderator.
