- **Event Description**: You might have heard of the forthcoming "Q day" - the day that a realistic quantum computer "actually works" and ... err... then what?About this EventYou might have heard of the forthcoming "Q day" - the day that a realistic quantum computer "actually works" and ... err... then what? Well...one thing is that a couple of very difficult mathematical problems become really easy. Unfortunately, those problems underpin the security of two of our major public-key cryptographic systems, potentially "breaking" those systems wide open. This session will talk about what the cryptographic community has been doing about this problem for the last decade or so, what you need to know, and what you need to do about it. Are you ready for "Post-Quantum Cryptography". Come along to this session to find out..About the speaker: Dr Rod Chapman, Senior Principal Applied Scientist, Amazon Web Services.Rod Chapman specialises in the development of safety and security-critical systems, from requirements engineering, through architectural design and implementation, to verification, audit and assessment. He has particular interest in the software implementation and verification of cryptographic algorithms and protocols. He is a Fellow of both the BCS and IET and holds an honorary visiting chair in computer science at the University of York. In 2022, Rod joined Amazon Web Services as a senior principal applied scientist, concentrating on the application of automated reasoning in the development of cryptographic software.
