May 4 – 5, 2026, Garching, Germany

The annual Fraunhofer AISEC networking event on post-quantum cryptography will take plave in in Garching, Germany:

From the webpage of the event:
“The development of quantum computers is advancing rapidly, and with it the risk that they will crack conventional encryption methods. Companies, public authorities, and the entire digital infrastructure need to take action.

With its Center of post-quantum cryptography excellence, Fraunhofer AISEC is driving the transition to post-quantum-secure methods with the aim of quickly bringing secure and practical solutions into use.

For years, the “PQC Update” networking event has been the central platform for exchange between research, industry, users, and politics on the topic of post-quantum cryptography.

  • Keynotes on European efforts related to PQC
  • From practice – from international strategies to concrete projects in Germany
  • From research – trustworthy hardware and measurable cryptoagility
  • Migration to PQC – gradual transition while maintaining compliance and security”
