No video of the event yet, sorry!
The last years have seen quite some improvements in Quantum Computers. As a sufficiently large quantum computer even if still several years in the future would be able to attack current day cryptography like RSA and Elliptic Curves, we need to start thinking and planning now about transitioning to quantum resistant / quantum safe or post quantum cryptographic ciphers where needed.
We will give an introduction to the problem, talk about the state of the standardization and development, and what has happened already in SUSE Linux Enterprise and openSUSE.
