Built for Cloud and Infrastructure Security Teams

Cloud and data centre operators sit at the centre of enterprise cryptographic migration. Key management infrastructure, network encryption at hyperscale, and long-retention archival data each present distinct quantum risk profiles with different migration sequencing requirements.

All sessions are delivered by subject-matter experts with direct experience in cloud infrastructure and quantum technology. Each session is fully vendor-agnostic and configurable to your organisation's technical level and security obligations.

Quantum Use-Case Workshops

Five structured sessions covering the highest-impact quantum applications for cloud and data centre teams. Each session combines technical depth with operational context.

PQC Migration for Cloud Key Management Services and HSM Infrastructure

In-depth technical workshop for cloud security architects and key management engineers. Covers PQC migration for AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, and GCP Cloud KMS alongside on-premises HSM vendors including Thales Luna and Utimaco. Addresses PKCS#11 PQC extension standards, KMIP protocol PQC support, hybrid key encapsulation for data at rest, and the sequencing of key hierarchy migration in large enterprise cloud environments.

Quantum Security for Hyperscale Data Centre Network Infrastructure

Covers PQC migration for data centre network security: TLS termination at load balancers, inter-data-centre WAN encryption (MACsec, IPsec), BGP session authentication, and DPDK-accelerated PQC on SmartNIC and DPU hardware. Addresses performance benchmarks for ML-KEM and ML-DSA on high-throughput network switching infrastructure and migration sequencing for internet-facing versus internal data centre network segments.

Learn More

Quantum Computing for Data Centre Energy Optimisation and Cooling

Examines quantum optimisation applications for data centre power management: cooling system dispatch scheduling, UPS and generator load balancing, workload placement optimisation for PUE reduction, and renewable energy procurement optimisation. Covers QUBO formulations for data centre energy problems, annealing approaches for real-time cooling control, and the competitive context of operators pursuing sub-1.2 PUE targets.

PQC Migration for Cloud-Native Applications and Service Mesh Infrastructure

Technical session for platform engineering and cloud security teams. Covers PQC integration in Kubernetes-native environments: Istio and Linkerd service mesh mTLS migration, cert-manager PQC certificate provisioning, SPIFFE/SPIRE workload identity under post-quantum standards, and container image signing with Sigstore and SLSA using PQC algorithms. Addresses migration patterns for microservice architectures with thousands of inter-service TLS sessions.

Quantum Threats to Cloud Data at Rest: Encryption Architecture and Migration

Addresses the quantum cryptographic exposure of cloud-stored data: object storage encryption, database-level encryption, and backup and archival encryption for data with long retention requirements. Covers the harvest-now-decrypt-later threat model for enterprise cloud data, the interaction between cloud provider default encryption and customer-managed key obligations, and NIST guidance on data classification for quantum migration prioritisation.

Deep-Dive Sessions

Advanced briefings for executive and strategy audiences. These sessions address competitive positioning, customer demand signals, and investment sequencing for quantum readiness in cloud and colocation markets.

Quantum Technology Strategy for Cloud and Data Centre Executives

CISOs, CTOs, and infrastructure strategy directors In person or online

Executive briefing for CISOs, CTOs, and infrastructure strategy directors at cloud service providers, colocation operators, and large enterprise cloud teams. Covers the dual quantum agenda: computing applications for data centre energy optimisation and workload management alongside the quantum security obligations now driving PQC adoption across hyperscalers, regulators, and enterprise customers. Addresses competitive dynamics, customer demand signals, and investment sequencing.
