SUMMARY:SEC529: Quantum Security Readiness for Executives - SANS Institute Course
DESCRIPTION:A one-day executive training course designed to help CISOs and security leaders build a practical quantum-safe roadmap before regulatory deadlines hit. \n\nAbout This Course\nSEC529 is a one-day\, instructor-led course offered by SANS Institute\, the global leader in cybersecurity training. It gives security executives the frameworks\, threat models\, and strategic tools needed to assess quantum risk and lead their organizations toward quantum resilience – without getting lost in the physics. \nWith many regulators expecting critical infrastructure to be quantum-safe by 2030\, this course addresses the narrow window security leaders have to build their strategy before regulatory and adversarial pressures converge. \nCourse Authors: Marin Ivezic & Dr. Kawin Boonyapredee \n\nWhat You Will Learn\nThe course covers the essential knowledge areas for executive-level quantum readiness: \n\nForecasting the threat: Apply structured models to estimate when cryptographically relevant quantum computers (CRQCs) will break current encryption – and what that timeline means for your data today.\nQuantifying HNDL exposure: Identify which encrypted assets are already at risk from Harvest Now\, Decrypt Later attacks and learn to prioritize accordingly.\nCryptographic inventory at the executive level: Map cryptographic dependencies across applications\, infrastructure\, and vendors using executive-level frameworks.\nNavigating compliance: Understand NIST PQC standards\, CNSA 2.0 requirements\, and EU mandates to build an audit-ready migration timeline.\nBuilding the roadmap: Construct a phased Quantum-Safe Migration Plan aligned with budget cycles\, business priorities\, and regulatory deadlines.\nWinning the boardroom: Translate quantum risk into business terms with metrics\, cost models\, and narratives that secure executive buy-in.\n\n\nHands-On Labs\nThe course includes three practical exercises: \n\nQ-Day Estimator – Model realistic timelines for when quantum computers could threaten current cryptography.\nQuantum-Readiness Self-Assessment – Evaluate your organization’s current posture against quantum threats.\nDrafting a Roadmap Briefing for the Board – Build the executive communication materials needed to drive action.\n\n\nWho Should Attend\nThis course is designed for CISOs\, senior security leaders\, technical directors\, information security officers\, and executive cyber leaders responsible for setting cybersecurity direction and managing enterprise risk. It is rated at an intermediate skill level\, with 6 CPEs awarded upon completion. \n\nThis Session\nSANS Cybersecurity Leadership Summit & Training 2026\n\nFormat: Virtual (live\, instructor-led)\nInstructor: Marin Ivezic\nPrice: $1\,315 USD (excluding local taxes)\n\nAll events in the series: SANS Institute Courses on Quantum Security & Post-Quantum Cryptography \n\nRegistration\nThis course is organized and delivered by SANS Institute. All registration is handled directly through SANS. \nRegister on the SANS website → \nFor group purchasing options or questions about the course\, please contact SANS directly. \n\nSEC529 is part of SANS Institute’s Cyber Defense curriculum. For full course details\, prerequisites\, laptop requirements\, and FAQs\, visit the official SANS course page. \n

SUMMARY:Quantum Security Community - 2026 Kickoff Event
DESCRIPTION:***Quantum Security Community*** *is a free\, global\, practitioner-led network sharing real-world PQC insights and supporting one another through the most complex IT/OT security transformation of our time. Explore the channels at* ***[Quantum.Security](https://quantum.security)*** \n**How to Engage with the Community + Quantum Readiness Updates** \nThe global quantum-security landscape is accelerating quickly – from PQC migration and crypto-agility\, to CRQC capability forecasts\, Q-Day horizon modeling\, regulatory pressure (NIST\, ENISA\, ETSI\, ISO\, CISA)\, and lessons learned from early enterprise adopters. \nTo begin 2026\, we’re hosting the first community event to bring everything together – and to show how you can get the most value from the Quantum Security Community ecosystem. \nThis session will cover two parts: \n*** \n### **1. How to Engage With and Benefit From the Quantum Security Community** \nAn introduction to the mission\, structure\, and tools of the Quantum Security Community\, including how to use our Slack workspace\, LinkedIn Group\, upcoming Forum\, events\, newsletters\, and community resources.\nYou’ll learn how each channel fits together – and how to participate in a way that builds value for you and for the wider community. \n*** \n### **2. Quantum Readiness Updates for 2026** \nA fast-paced\, research-driven overview of where we stand at the start of 2026\, including: \n* Latest Q-Day predictions and capability thresholds\n* Key signals from CRQC hardware progress\n* Regulatory pushes and global standards alignment (NIST\, ENISA\, ETSI\, ISO\, NCSC\, CISA\, MAS)\n* Lessons learned from early PQC migration and crypto-agility projects\n* What organizations are doing right now to become quantum-resilient\n* Emerging risks in QKD\, quantum sensing\, and quantum-secure architectures \nThis session is designed to be high-signal and vendor-neutral – suitable for security leaders\, cryptographers\, architects\, engineers\, researchers\, and policymakers. \n*** \n## **📅 Date & Time** \n**Thursday\, 19 March 2026**\n**16:00 CET / 15:00 GMT / 11:00 EDT / 23:00 SGT** \n*** \n## **📍 Location** \n**Online Event (Zoom)**\nLink will be provided upon RSVP. \n*** \n## **🌐 About the Quantum Security Community** \nThe Quantum Security Community ([Quantum.Security](https://quantum.security)) brings together practitioners\, researchers\, engineers\, architects\, and policymakers working across PQC migration\, crypto-agility\, Q-Day readiness\, CRQC capability analysis\, quantum communications\, sensing security\, and emerging global standards. \nOur community hub: https://quantum.security[https://quantum.security%5D(https://quantum.security) \nFrom there you can join: \n* Slack (real-time technical discussions)\n* LinkedIn Group (professional community)\n* YouTube + Podcast (coming soon)\n* Meetups & events\n* Quantum Security Community Digest\n* Learning resources & tools \n*** \n## **💬 Join the Discussion** \nWe’ll continue the conversation after the event on Slack.\nJoin here: **[https://slack.quantum.security ](https://slack.quantum.security)**
