A dark navy-blue webinar title slide with a clean, modern technology aesthetic. At the upper left is the Industry Network Technology Council logo and wordmark in white and cyan. At the upper right, "QUANTUM WEBINAR SERIES" appears in large white and cyan uppercase text. The left half of the slide is dominated by the event title, "Transitioning to Quantum-Safe Cryptography," set in large, bold white sans-serif type across three lines. Below it, the date "28 JULY 2026" is displayed in cyan. The right half features a glowing digital globe composed of blue dots and interconnected light nodes, with luminous network arcs spanning continents to suggest global connectivity and secure communications. Blue particle-wave effects flow across the lower edge of the slide, reinforcing the futuristic theme. Near the lower right, the white text "ARCHIVED BY ISOC.LIVE" serves as subtle branding. The overall design uses a restrained palette of deep blue, white, and electric cyan, with balanced typography and imagery conveying cybersecurity, networking, and quantum-era technology.

On 28 July 2026, the Industry Network Technology Council (INTC) hosted a webinar ‘Transitioning to Quantum-Safe cryptography‘.

This third talk in the INTC Quantum Series gave an overview of post-quantum encryption and digital signature primitives recently standardized by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to which a lot of governments and organizations are currently transitioning. The session also gave a brief description of additional algorithms that are currently in the pipeline at NIST and talked about what kind of challenges one faces when trying to migrate more complex protocols to quantum-safe.

On April 13, 2026, at 10:00 PDT (17:00 UTC) the Dynamic Coalition on Data Driven Health Technologies (DC-DDHT) hosted a webinar ‘Quantum Technologies, Implications for the Global Digital Divide‘. The webinar highlighted that while quantum technologies promise major advances in healthcare and science, without urgent action on inclusion, capacity building, and post-quantum security, they risk significantly widening the global digital divide.

On 26 February 2026, the IGF Dynamic Coalition on Internet Standards, Security and Safety Coalition (IS3C) and Afnic hosted a webinar ‘The Post-Quantum Cryptography transition. Tackling a huge challenge‘.

One of the main challenges ICT organisations face today is preparing for the transition to the post-quantum era in a coordinated and timely manner. With quantum computing on the horizon, a practical question arises: How do you protect the vital data of your organisation, customers, and society at large from the computing power it will deliver?

Why is this an urgent question? Quantum computing will enable computing power that renders
all existing cryptographic protections obsolete. Although quantum computing is often seen as a
future technology, it may be only one eureka moment away. Plus, hackers are stealing data now
to decrypt later. This makes PQC an urgent topic. It is time for action!
