Google’s unveiling of the Willow chip is a clear signal that the era of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) migration is upon us. As highlighted in this SecurityWeek article, the conversation is shifting from “if” to “how soon” organizations need to prepare. Our CEO, Karl H., offers key insights on this development, emphasizing that waiting for disruption to strike is not an option. Businesses must act with intention and foresight to safeguard their critical infrastructure. Post-quantum cryptography isn’t just about future threats - it’s about the preparations we make today. From defense to critical infrastructure to financial systems, the ripple effects of quantum advancements will be far-reaching. Organizations that begin this journey early will be best positioned to navigate it successfully. It’s worth reflecting on how your organization is approaching this shift. Is your strategy proactive or reactive? #PostQuantumCryptography #Cybersecurity #PQC #QuantumSecurity #FutureRead

This was a pretty eye-opening episode of ID Talk. Lastwall founder and CEO Karl H. joined Alex Perala and I to give us his expert take on the coming threats of quantum computing, and to explain why quantum resiliency needs to be a a very serious consideration for all organizations. Karl was so easy to talk to, and did such a great job breaking down what can be a very complicated subject (for me, at least). Alex and I helped by using TV and sports analogies, as only we can.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has set a 2035 deadline for agencies to shift from existing #encryption methods, but experts caution that businesses can’t afford to wait. Some predict that state actors may achieve scalable quantum computing by 2028, putting data at risk much sooner. Don't miss Evan Schuman's latest article on CSO Online for insights on why proactive security measures can't wait. #whenidentitymattersmost #postquantumencryption #cybersecurity

November marks Critical Infrastructure Security and Resilience Month 2024, a time to reflect on the systems that power, connect, and sustain our way of life - from energy grids and transportation networks to healthcare and communication systems. In today’s digital landscape, protecting these essential services is more crucial than ever. The focus this month by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency highlights the importance of collaboration, innovation, and preparedness in safeguarding our critical infrastructure against evolving threats. Together, let’s prioritize resilience and ensure these vital systems remain secure for our communities and future generations.

We were honoured to join the Montreal Climate and Security Summit 2024, thanks to Conference of Defence Associations Institute and NATO Climate Change and Security Centre of Excellence (CCASCOE) for hosting such an impactful event. Our key takeaway? The urgency of integrating climate resilience directly into our national security priorities. It’s a challenge that requires the best of both worlds - strong cybersecurity frameworks and innovative thinking to safeguard critical infrastructure against climate risks. We’re all in, and it’s inspiring to be part of this crucial dialogue. Gratitude to all who contributed to the rich discussions and powerful insights. Looking forward to continuing the momentum for a secure, resilient future. #criticalinfrastructure #climatesecurity #canada #defence #security #defencepolicy #cybersecurity #innovation

The recent disclosure about an Okta vulnerability allowing long usernames to bypass login security for three months is a stark reminder of the complexities we face in safeguarding #digitalidentities. It's not just about compliance; it's about anticipating potential weaknesses and proactively closing those gaps before they become a gateway for attackers. This serves as a moment for industry reflection: Are we doing everything possible to secure our clients' data and maintain trust? At Lastwall, we prioritize a security-first approach, embedding rigorous safeguards and #postquantumresilience to ensure that threats, known and emerging, are effectively mitigated. As organizations increasingly depend on robust identity management solutions, the stakes for protecting against potential breaches are higher than ever. #Cybersecurity #whenidentitymattersmost #ZeroTrust Techopedia
