In this English-language episode of the My Precious Data Podcast, cybersecurity expert Eddy Willems sits down with longtime colleague (LSEC) and internationally renowned cryptographer Prof. Dr. Bart Preneel (KU Leuven). Together, they explore the past, present, and future of cybersecurity — from the foundations of cryptography to the political and societal challenges of digital trust today.Topics discussed:The evolution of cryptography and its real-world applicationsThe balance between privacy, security, and surveillanceQuantum computing: a threat or a promise?Europe's role in shaping global cybersecurity standardsWhat needs to change in the next decade?Quotes from the episode:“In the end, trust is not built by technology alone. It's about governance, transparency, and respect for users.” — Prof. Dr. Bart Preneel“People often think cybersecurity is just about hackers and firewalls. But it's deeply tied to our rights, our freedom, and the way societies function.” — Eddy Willems“We are now entering an era where cryptography will face its biggest challenge: quantum resistance.” — Prof. Dr. Bart PreneelThis is not just a technical conversation — it's a thought-provoking dialogue between two world-leading experts who have been part of the cybersecurity evolution for decades.

Researchers have made a breakthrough in cryptography, building a new foundation for quantum cryptography that could make it more secure than classical encryption. The new approach, developed by Dakshita Khurana and Kabir Tomer, uses quantum building blocks called one-way puzzles to generate locks and keys.

In this episode Michael and Mark talk with guest Mark Russinovich, Technical Fellow, Deputy CISO and Chief Technology Officer of Microsoft Azure about quantum cryptography and quantum computing and its implications for security and the future. NOTE: There's a portion where Mark and Michael talk about a quote made by Richard Feynman about understanding technical topics, but this is actually attributed to Albert Einstein. However, there is no definitive record of Einstein writing or saying this exact phrase in his published works or speeches.We decided to not cover any Azure Security news in this episode.

For the first time, Shor's Algorithm is running on logical qubits! The team at Infleqtion used their Sqale neutral atom processor to accomplish the feat. While the setup only uses six logical qubits, and we're still in the range of factoring 15 or 21, this is both a proof of concept and a proof of the need for post-quantum cryptography (PQC). We discuss the aggressive 2.5:1 physical-to-logical ratio of Sqale, which could lead to hundreds of logical qubits by 2028. Also, find out why Shor's Algorithm could surprisingly end up being one of the first killer apps for quantum computing, rather than a later use case.

Quantum computing isn't a far-off sci-fi threat. In a hybrid model (CPU + GPU + quantum), it could land within ~3 years—and that's enough to break today's asymmetric cryptography (RSA/ECC/PKI) used for TLS/HTTPS and VPN key exchange via Shor's algorithm. Result? Session keys exposed, mass decryption possible, and a risky “post-quantum gap” before new hardware/software are widely deployed.

Cryptography experts are racing to develop algorithms that can protect data from powerful quantum computers, which have been demonstrably capable of breaking current encryption systems since the development of Shor's algorithm in 1994. Lattice problems, a type of mathematical model that involves calculating vectors in a mathematical structure, are being considered as a potential foundation for post-quantum cryptography.

Can we build technology today to defend against the threats of tomorrow? This week, Technology Now concludes a double episode on post quantum cryptography and explores the subject of firmware, why it's imperative that it be protected against quantum attacks and why a simple update can't solve every problem. Nigel Edwards, Director of the Security Lab at HPE Labs, tells us more.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week, hosts Michael Bird and Aubrey Lovell look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations.About Nigel: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nigel-edwards-170591/?originalSubdomain=ukSources: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/01/the-long-and-winding-history-of-encryption/423726/https://www.theqrl.org/blog/history-of-cryptography-behind-the-code-episode-1/https://www.theguardian.com/science/2025/may/07/todays-ai-can-crack-second-world-war-enigma-code-in-short-order-experts-say

We're in the era of quantum computing. That brings with it a lot of great things. But at the same time, it brings some not so good things. Once again, we're in a race to stay ahead of the bad guys to keep our systems secure. Folks like the experts at Infineon are doing what they can to do just that. And the best part is that they are trying to insulate their customers from having to deal with all the different measures that must be put in place. Hear from Eric Wood, Infineon's Senior Director of Microcontroller Cryptography and Product Security, to see if this sounds like a fit for your design. Check out this week's Embedded Executives podcast to learn more.

We're living in the golden age of cryptography. Since the 1970s, we’ve had more confidence in encryption than ever before. But there’s a difference between confidence and absolute certainty. And computer scientists care a lot about that difference. The search is always on for better, more secure secrets. But is it possible for digital security to be truly, provably unbreakable? Maybe, with a little help from math and physics. On this week's episode, host Samir Patel talks with ???????????????????????? computer science staff writer Ben Brubaker about a developing frontier of digital security: quantum cryptography. This topic was covered in a recent story for Quanta Magazine. Each week on The Quanta Podcast, Quanta Magazine editor in chief Samir Patel speaks with the people behind the award-winning publication to navigate through some of the most important and mind-expanding questions in science and math.

There was a bug in an OpenPGP library which finally gave us an excuse to tear encrypted email via PGP to shreds. Our special guest William Woodruff joined us to help explain the vuln and indulge our gnashing of teeth on why email was never meant to be encrypted and how other modern tools do the job much, much better.Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoL3LfIozJoTranscript: https://securitycryptographywhatever.com/2025/08/22/stop-using-encrypted-email-with-william-woodruffLinks:- William Woodruff: https://yossarian.net/- https://www.latacora.com/blog/2020/02/19/stop-using-encrypted/- https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4880- https://codeanlabs.com/blog/research/cve-2025-47934-spoofing-openpgp-js-signatures/- https://www.mailpile.is/blog/2014-10-07_Some_Thoughts_on_GnuPG.html- https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9580.html- https://www.tumblr.com/accidentallyquadratic- https://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/- https://support.yubico.com/hc/en-us/articles/360013790259-Using-Your-YubiKey-with-OpenPGP- https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9580.html#name-signature-packet-type-id-2- https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9580.html#name-key-derivation-function- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S/MIME- https://delta.chat- https://signal.org/blog/the-ecosystem-is-moving/- https://phakeobj.netlify.app/posts/gigacage/- https://x.com/dakami-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----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-----END PGP MESSAGE-----"Security Cryptography Whatever" is hosted by Deirdre Connolly (@durumcrustulum), Thomas Ptacek (@tqbf), and David Adrian (@davidcadrian)

In an age when AI models are becoming exponentially more sophisticated and powerful, how does one ensure that proper results are being generated and that the AI model functions in desired parameters? This pressing concern of AI alignment could be solved through cryptographic verification, using zero knowledge proofs. ZKPs not only allow for verifying computation at scale, but they also confer data privacy. Lagrange's DeepProve zkML is the fastest in existence, making it easy to prove that AI inferences are correct, scaling verifiable computation as the demand for AI grows.Topics covered in this episode:Ismael's background and founding LagrangeAI x crypto convergenceZKML use casesAI inference verifiabilityAI safety regulationsRevenue accruing tokensPitching Lagrange to enterprise clientsAssembling a dedicated teamCryptography researchEpisode links:Ismael Hishon-Rezaizadeh on XLagrange on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

IonQ is poised to redefine the quantum computing landscape, projecting a staggering 80,000 logical qubits by 2030—potentially unlocking the power to crack encryption. NIST has us on a timeline to upgrade to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) by 2035, so this 5-year gap may spell doom for cybersecurity. Of course, these machines will also revolutionize industries from finance to drug discovery to AI. How is IonQ boosting their roadmap by orders of magnitude?

Quantum computing has been "five years away" for decades, but when NVIDIA's Jensen Huang says we've hit an inflection point, Congress listens and stocks soar. The reality? We're still building very expensive proof-of-concepts. Today's quantum computers run on 100 qubits—impressive to physicists, useless to you. Commercial viability needs a million qubits, a 10,000x leap that's not incremental progress but a complete reinvention.Unlike the familiar tech story where room-sized computers became pocket devices, quantum is binary: it either works at massive scale or it's an elaborate academic exercise. There's no quantum equivalent of early PCs that could at least balance your checkbook—no useful middle ground between 100 qubits and a million.China wants quantum for cryptography: the master key to any lock. America's lead exists mostly on paper—in research publications and VC rounds, not deployed systems. Dr. Peter Shadbolt from PsiQuantum, fresh from congressional testimony, argues America must commit now or risk losing a race that could redefine pharmaceutical research and financial security. The real question: can a democracy sustain long-term investment in technologies that offer zero immediate gratification?

Quantum computing is moving from theory to reality, and it's reshaping technology, AI, and cybersecurity. Technology strategies must move with it.

JC Gaillard and guest Mark Jacob from Cyrista revisit the challenges of post-quantum cryptography, and highlight why it is essential to take it seriously and start acting now

When NIST released the first post-quantum cryptography standards in August 2024, it set off a domino effect that will hopefully result in protecting the world from the quantum computing threat. Now that we're beginning to migrate and trust our data to lattice-based cryptography, it's a good time to examine how ML-KEM works and get some hints about how to implement it well.

This conversation delves into the intersection of quantum computing and cryptography, focusing on the implications of quantum computers for current encryption methods and the necessity for post-quantum cryptography. Dr. Dustin Moody from NIST discusses the threats posed by quantum computing, particularly through Shor's algorithm, and the ongoing efforts to develop new cryptographic standards that can withstand these threats. The discussion also covers the role of NIST in standardizing post-quantum algorithms, the mathematical challenges involved, and the importance of preparing businesses for the transition to these new systems. All opinions are of the individual scientist and do not reflect the opinions of NIST or the federal Government.Takeaways Quantum computers harness principles of quantum physics for computation. Shor's algorithm can efficiently factor large numbers, threatening RSA encryption. Post-quantum cryptography aims to develop algorithms resistant to quantum attacks. NIST is leading the effort to standardize post-quantum cryptographic algorithms. Lattice-based algorithms are promising for post-quantum cryptography due to their efficiency. Businesses must be proactive in transitioning to post-quantum cryptography. The Harvest Now, Decrypt Later threat highlights the urgency of transitioning. Quantum key distribution offers theoretically perfect security. Different cryptographic algorithms are needed for various applications and devices. The future of cryptography will rely on new mathematical challenges to ensure security.Keywordsquantum computing, cryptography, post-quantum cryptography, NIST, cybersecurity, Shor's algorithm, digital signatures, lattice-based algorithms, encryption, quantum threatsSubscribe to Breaking Math wherever you get your podcasts.

In this Road to Macstock Conference and Expo conversation we welcome longtime speaker Kirschen Seah to discuss her upcoming session, Passkeys Demystified. Kirschen explains the promise of passkeys as a more secure, user-friendly alternative to passwords, and why adoption has been slower than expected. She shares insights into how passkeys work using public key cryptography, addresses common concerns about biometric data, and outlines how password managers like Apple Keychain and 1Password integrate with the system. With real-world scenarios and practical examples, Kirschen aims to help attendees confidently adopt passkeys and understand the evolving standards behind them.  Show Notes: Chapters: 00:08 Introduction to MacVoices 00:45 Kirschen Seah Joins the Conversation 02:20 Passkeys Demystified 08:44 Managing Multiple Accounts 10:32 The Role of Password Managers 13:15 Preparing for the Session 15:55 Macstock Conference Details 17:51 The Value of Curiosity at Macstock Links: Macstock Conference and Expo Save $50 with the Kirschen's discount code: freerangecoder Save $50 with Chuck's discount code: macvoices50 Guests: Kirschen Seah's background is Computer Sciences with interests in Software Engineering, User Experience, and Mac OS X / iPhone OS development. She started programming with BASIC in 1978 on an Apple ][ and have over 30 years of experience in the field. Kirschen worked on OPENSTEP (precursor to Mac OS X Cocoa) graphical prototyping applications initially when she joined Rockwell Collins (now Collins Aerospace) in 1999, and was a Senior Principal Systems Engineer in the Flight Management Systems department focussed on the user interface for pilot interaction. Prior to joining Rockwell Collins Kirschen worked at Acuity (formerly ichat) developing interactive user interfaces for live chat customer service agents. Now retired, there's now more time to share technical insights on her blog, develop useful scripts (Python, shell), and write Shortcuts. Kirschen is really motivated to share her experience to help fellow software practitioners develop better skills – be that in good design, implementation, or computer science fundamentals. As much as she can, Kirschen tries to share the delight in discovering how iOS and macOS applications for productivity and creativity have helped her do better in her personal and (former) work life.

At RSAC 2025, the most urgent signals weren't necessarily the loudest. As ISACA board member and cybersecurity veteran Rob Clyde joins Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli for a post-conference recap, it's clear that conversations about the future of the profession—and its people—mattered just as much as discussions on AI and cryptography.More Than a Job: Why Community MattersRob Clyde shares his long-standing involvement with ISACA and reflects on the powerful role that professional associations play in cybersecurity careers. It's not just about certifications—though Clyde notes that employers often value them more than degrees—it's also about community, mentorship, and mutual support. When asked how many people landed a job because of someone in their local ISACA chapter, half the room raised their hands. That kind of connection is difficult to overstate.Clyde urges cybersecurity professionals to look beyond their company roles and invest in something that gives back—whether through volunteering, speaking, or simply showing up. “It's your career,” he says. “Take back control.”Facing Burnout and Legal Risk Head-OnThe group also addresses a growing issue: burnout. ISACA's latest research shows 66% of cybersecurity professionals are feeling more burned out than last year. For CISOs in particular, that pressure is compounded by personal liability—as in the case of former SolarWinds CISO Tim Brown being sued by the SEC. Clyde warns that such actions have a chilling effect, discouraging internal risk discussions and openness.To counteract that, he emphasizes the need for continuous learning and peer support as a defense, not only against burnout, but also isolation and fear.The Silent Threat of QuantumWhile AI dominated RSAC's headlines, Clyde raises a quieter but equally pressing concern: quantum computing. ISACA chose to focus its latest poll on this topic, revealing a significant gap between awareness and action. Despite widespread recognition that a breakthrough could “break the internet,” only 5% of respondents are taking proactive steps. Clyde sees this as a wake-up call. “The algorithms exist. Q Day is coming. We just don't know when.”From mental health to quantum readiness, this conversation makes it clear: cybersecurity isn't just a technology issue—it's a people issue.
