“Cyber resilience in the quantum era requires proactive planning and strategic investment,” said Dr. Marc Manzano, General Manager of the Cybersecurity Group at SandboxAQ. “SandboxAQ is committed to driving the advancement of modern cryptography management solutions. RWPQC 2025 reflects our dedication to fostering collaboration across industry, academia, and government to ensure a secure and resilient quantum future. This event provides a crucial platform to advance research, share best practices, and strengthen the cybersecurity ecosystem against the challenges posed by quantum computing. We remain committed to prioritizing cryptographic resilience across both public and private sectors.”

RWPQC 2025 will feature leading cybersecurity and quantum computing experts addressing the impact of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) on cybersecurity, along with its regulatory and policy implications. Speakers from major technology companies—including AWS, Cloudflare, Entrust, Google, IBM, Meta, and NVIDIA—will share their efforts to integrate PQC into their operations. Industry panels will bring together financial institutions, consulting firms, and technology leaders to discuss their approaches to transitioning to quantum-safe solutions. The conference will also explore PQC migration across key sectors such as banking, IoT, and large-scale digital infrastructures.

Government and policy discussions will provide critical updates on global PQC initiatives. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will share progress on its PQC standardization efforts, while representatives from the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) will outline the U.S. government’s implementation strategy. Experts from the UK, France, and Germany will offer European perspectives on PQC adoption, and a presentation will highlight South Korea’s newly released PQC standards. Additionally, sessions will examine how the broader internet ecosystem is evolving to ensure quantum safety in the digital age.

“Cybersecurity innovation requires cross-industry collaboration, and RWPQC provides a unique opportunity to bring together the best minds in technology and policy,” said Dr Wen Masters, vice president of cyber technologies at MITRE. “As a trusted partner in securing national and global infrastructure and a founder of the Post-Quantum Cryptography Coalition, MITRE is proud to partner on RWPQC 2025 as we continue to engage with the worldwide cyber community on accelerating the adoption of post-quantum cryptography and safeguarding critical systems against emerging threats.”
