Welcome to Risky Women Radio, the podcast that spotlights the bold, brilliant women leading change across risk, compliance and governance. In an era where uncertainty has been upgraded from a buzzword to a permanent state of being, we sit down with the leaders who navigate the chaos so the rest of us can sleep at night.In this episode, Zhiyun Nai, a managing director at Protiviti, is joined by Jean Chung, chief…

What if you could crunch numbers on a dataset without ever actually seeing the sensitive information inside? Dr. Kurt Rohloff, co-founder and CTO of Duality Technologies, joins host Konstantinos Karagiannis to explain the wild capabilities of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), which allows for computation on data while it remains fully encrypted. Because FHE is built on lattice-based cryptography, it offers robust…

In this landmark five-year special episode, host Konstantinos Karagiannis welcomes Addie LaMarr, a YouTuber and former cryptographer with eight years of experience in the Air Force and a history of writing cybersecurity policy for the Department of Justice. LaMarr identifies 2026 as the “beginning of quantum seriousness,” a year where global regulations are forcing a transition to protect critical data longevity…

Zapata’s back! A tough stretch including a difficult SPAC deal, a brief move into AI, and a $20 million debt forced the company to shut down in 2024. But in this episode, Sumit Kapur, CEO of Zapata Quantum, talks with host Konstantinos Karagiannis about how the company made a remarkable comeback. They discuss the intense restructuring, the strong support from the quantum computing industry, and how Zapata’s seven…

The groundbreaking Pinnacle Architecture paper has sent shockwaves through the quantum computing industry by demonstrating that RSA-2048 encryption could potentially be cracked with just 100,000 physical qubits. This is a massive order-of-magnitude reduction from previous estimates that once reached into the millions. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis as he sits down with Felix Thomsen and Paul Webster from Iceberg…

A one-shot signature is a new quantum computing tool that lets people verify information publicly using a quantum signing key that destroys itself after use. This “proof of destruction” makes sure the key can only be used once, which could lead to cryptographic solutions that classical math could not achieve. Host Konstantinos Karagiannis talks with Omri Shmueli, a cryptographer and postdoctoral research fellow at…

Explore the high-stakes world of quantum venture capital. Host Konstantinos Karagiannis sits down with Kike Miralles, Investment Director at Intel Capital. Moving beyond surface-level hype, Miralles introduces his “five-layer stack” philosophy—a strategic framework that evaluates everything from physical infrastructure and QPUs to middleware and end-user applications. He shares candid insights into why Intel Capital…
