Insight Section Listing Podcast | From Firewalls to Quantum Shields: A Blueprint for PQC Migration — with Palo Alto Networks October 15, 2025 You’ve likely heard of Pareto’s Principle or the 80/20 rule. Is there a way to achieve most of the benefits of crypto-agility with minimal effort? Palo Alto Networks has undoubtedly made its mark with firewalls and security detection and response offerings. We learn how they can also provide a rapid head start to PQC migration, covering everything from cryptographic inventory to creating wrappers for legacy app… Podcast | Room Temperature Quantum Computing — with Quantum Brilliance October 1, 2025 Can you put a quantum computer in a satellite, car, or even laptop? It’s possible with diamond-based quantum technologies that work at room temperature. Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center qubits challenge the notion that quantum computing is confined to massive data centers. Such mass-deployable quantum computers and sensors can be used in medical diagnostics, satellite imaging, and anywhere local inference is useful.… FPS Podcast | CMMC Rule is Out - What Contractors Must Know With DOD Contracts September 22, 2025 On September 10th, 2025 the "CMMC Final Rule" was published in CFR48. After about seven years of starts and stops, determining Level classifications, the number of controls and compliance needed, CMMC certification is now set to be in certain DOD contracts starting November 10th. Cost of compliance has varied greatly, but when dealing with FCI and CUI data, this certification will protect that data through the… Podcast | Running Shor’s Algorithm on Logical Qubits — with Infleqtion September 17, 2025 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… Podcast | How Psychology Can Be a Driver for Sustainability – with Alyse Mauro Mason, Dr. Elise Amel and Paige Powers September 9, 2025 In our latest edition of Board Perspectives, our conversation focuses on psychology and its role as a potential driver for sustainability in organisations. Protiviti Associate Director Alyse Mauro Mason is joined by Dr. Elise Amel and Paige Powers.Dr. Amel earned a PhD in Industrial and Organisational Psychology from Purdue University and is an award-winning professor of psychology at the University of St. Thomas.… Podcast | Welcome to the Quantum Network – with Cisco September 3, 2025 Imagine a world where quantum computers seamlessly share entangled particles across data centers, solving problems beyond the reach of classical systems. This may be possible soon thanks to a groundbreaking quantum networking entanglement chip capable of generating 200 million entangled photon pairs per second at room temperature. Cisco is redefining networking again, doing everything from detecting eavesdroppers on… Podcast | One PQC Playbook – with DigiCert August 19, 2025 DigiCert is widely recognised for its expertise in PKI and as a TLS certificate authority. As you can imagine, they have a significant perspective on the quantum computing threat to encryption and the migration to post-quantum cryptography (PQC). We cover everything from the challenges of upgrading IoT devices to ML-DSA signature sizes, as well as the new DigiCert One platform the company offers to help manage the… Podcast | Shaping the Future of Financial Services August 12, 2025 In an environment marked by macroeconomic volatility, regulatory complexity and accelerating innovation, one principle continues to rise above the noise: Trust drives transformation.In this interview from the video series The Modern CIO Dilemma, Protiviti speaks with Seamus Smith, executive vice president and group president at FIS, to explore how forward-looking financial institutions are navigating disruption —… Podcast | Cracking Encryption by 2030? – with Dean Kassmann of IonQ August 6, 2025 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 revolutionise industries from finance to drug discovery to AI. How is IonQ… Podcast | Open-Source Quantum Sensing at DEF CON — with Quantum Village July 23, 2025 DEF CON 33 approaches, bringing with it the fourth year of Quantum Village. Nothing like getting hands-on with quantum computing and sensing technology at the world’s leading hacking conference. To that end, this episode explores the open-source quantum sensing device and software that our guests Mark Carney and Victoria Kumaran are presenting in Vegas. And yes, for the third year in a row, host Konstantinos… Load More
