SQuaD Workshop on Quantum Communication 

Is QKD Technology Ready to Become a Standard for Secure Communications?

Current security solutions face significant challenges as technology advances and cyber threats become more sophisticated. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) promises a new paradigm of security, but is QKD technology ready to become a standard for secure communications?

Join us for an engaging workshop where we delve into the latest advancements in QKD technology, explore evolving certification processes, and identify gaps for future QKD deployment. This event offers a unique opportunity to engage with thought leaders, gain valuable insights, and network with peers at the forefront of secure communications, fostering meaningful connections and collaborations. Whether you’re a cybersecurity professional, an optical communications expert, or simply someone deeply invested in the future of secure communications, this workshop will provide the knowledge and connections you need to stay ahead.

Agenda:

• Industry Perspective
  Leading QKD manufacturers will share insights on what makes their QKD solutions unique and ready for deployment.
• QKD Certification
  Key players in the certification process will provide updates on their progress and how they are advancing certification beyond the current standards.

• QKD Readiness – Gap Analysis for Future QKD Deployment
  A panel of experts will discuss the current state of QKD deployment, examining key challenges and exploring potential opportunities for the future. Attendees will have the opportunity to interact with the panelists, ask questions, and engage in meaningful discussions.

Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with leading experts and innovators in the field of quantum communications.
