JUNE 2025: Acubed IT at ETSI/IQC Post-Quantum Cryptography Conference 2025!

From 3rd to 5th June 2025, our Founder and CEO, Amit Gupta, attended the ETSI/IQC Post-Quantum Safe Cryptography Conference in Madrid. The event brought together global experts to discuss the latest developments in post-quantum cryptography, including representatives from NIST, the EU Commission, and National Cyber Bodies. 

 

Reflecting on his attendance, Amit shared on LinkedIn how the event provided an opportunity to reconnect with industry leaders such as Jaime Gómez García, Lily Lidong Chen, Itan Barmes, and Suman Ziaullah, and to exchange ideas on PQC readiness and roadmaps. 

 

He also highlighted our ongoing work on PQC migration, including the PQC-RA Toolkit for cryptographic risk assessment and the integration of Kyber and Dilithium into secure, cross-domain platforms like CDHA. Amit called for a shift from "PQC procrastination to PQC preparation", urging organisations to incorporate PQC-focused questions into cyber assurance processes like GovAssure and the Cyber Assessment Framework (CAF). These include: Are you still using RSA, ECC, or DH? Have you inventoried your cryptographic assets? Do you have a migration plan? 

 

Looking back, the conference offered valuable insights into emerging roadmaps, EU funding, and the role of regulation in driving PQC adoption across critical sectors.
