Cryptography, Security and AI Workshop Day

---

This talk will look at major objections to the use of QKD. It will go on to describe the UK-funded QASSURE project which seeks to stand-up an assurance facility, which would ultimately provide assurance and accreditation for QKD equipment

In this talk we will explore what is actually possible with QML / Quantum AI, some good results and some disappointing results. And we will detangle what is the reality on what's possible with QML.

Quantum-enabled networks for data centers and applications require the integration of multiple technologies to ensure robust security in the quantum era. As artificial intelligence takes on more responsibility for critical infrastructure, autonomous systems, and cybersecurity, the risks associated with compromised encrypted communications across networks increase significantly. Transitioning to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is essential for widespread use; however, vital functions cannot afford a single point of failure, such as relying on just one algorithm. The cryptographic architecture of quantum-secure systems must evolve beyond the traditional internet model to include the high resilience and redundancy already used in many cloud environments.
