SUMMARY:Elliptic Curve Cryptography\, the Canary in the Quantum Coal Mine

We review the basics of ECC and its deployment in digital infrastructures and locate attacks on ECC in the application landscape of quantum computers. From physical and economical considerations\, we estimate a plausible range for the cost of quantum attacks and the rate at which such attacks can occur at the onset of the fault tolerant regime. \nWe look in detail at the use of ECC in blockchain infrastructures like Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and build the case that the early Bitcoin wallets are bound to act as canaries for the onset of quantum cryptanalysis attacks. The implications for US agencies and the blind spots of regulators are highlighted. \nOpen Q&A discussion. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View Here: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Zoom for Government enables ATARC remote collaboration opportunities through its cloud platform for video and audio conferencing\, chats and webinars across all devices.

Consumer browsers often lack robust security and isolation capabilities\, leading organizations to adopt a last-mile approach to endpoint security. This involves either holistically managing (ship and support) corporate devices or isolating data entirely through virtual desktops. To address this\, Palo Alto Networks has introduced Prisma Access Browser\, an emerging technology designed to enhance web security and streamline user experience. \nIn this tech talk\, we will dive into the key features and benefits of Prisma Access Browser. We will discuss how it leverages the power of the cloud to provide secure\, scalable\, and high-performance browsing experiences\, irrespective of user location. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Wayne LeRiche\n					Federal Civilian Field CTO & Solutions Architect\, Palo Alto Networks \n					\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					}\n					\n						9:00 AM\n						\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Emerging Technology Talk\nFriend or Fraud?

The maturity of currently-available quantum computers is not yet at a level such that they can be used in production for large-scale\, industrially-relevant problems\, and they are not believed to currently pose security risks. However\, four trends — new algorithms\, error mitigation\, circuit knitting\, and the commercial exploration of business-relevant quantum applications — may enable useful and practical quantum computing in the near future. At the same time\, these trends are unlikely to affect the feasibility of using quantum computers for cryptanalysis. Given this\, there is a credible expectation that quantum computers will be capable of performing computations which are economically-impactful before they will be capable of performing ones which are cryptographically-relevant. \nOpen Q&A discussion. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View Here:\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Zoom for Government enables ATARC remote collaboration opportunities through its cloud platform for video and audio conferencing\, chats and webinars across all devices.
