Consulting / Telecommunications
Six specialist workshops covering quantum key distribution for backhaul networks, PQC migration for 5G signalling, satellite communications security, network planning optimisation, and cryptographic inventory methodology. Delivered by practitioners with direct telecoms and quantum technology experience.
Telecoms operators sit at the intersection of quantum computing opportunity and quantum security obligation. Network infrastructure carries encrypted communications that adversaries are collecting today. NIST PQC standards are finalised. The migration window is open.
All sessions are delivered by subject-matter experts with direct telecoms and quantum technology experience. Each session is fully vendor-agnostic and configurable to your organisation's technical level and operational priorities.
Five structured sessions covering the highest-impact quantum applications and security priorities for telecoms operators. Each session combines technical depth with practical migration guidance.
In-depth technical workshop for network architects and security engineers at telecoms operators. Covers QKD deployment architectures for metro and long-haul fibre backhaul, trusted node configurations, QKD-TLS integration, and the current vendor landscape including Toshiba, ID Quantique, and Huawei deployments. Addresses ETSI GS QKD standards and how to evaluate QKD against PQC for specific network segments.
Technical session for 5G security architects and 3GPP standards teams. Covers the cryptographic exposure in 5G-AKA, SUPI/SUCI encryption, and NAS/RRC layer security under quantum threat. Addresses 3GPP Release 18 and Release 19 quantum security considerations, ETSI NFV-SEC integration, and migration pathways for deployed 5G SA and NSA networks.
Covers quantum security for LEO and GEO satellite communication systems, including PQC for ground-to-satellite command links, telemetry encryption, and inter-satellite link security. Addresses the specific constraints of satellite hardware (limited compute, long replacement cycles, radiation hardening requirements) and how to apply NIST PQC standards to satellite command and control architectures.
Examines quantum and quantum-inspired optimisation for spectrum allocation, network topology design, dynamic bandwidth management, and multi-layer traffic engineering. Covers QUBO formulations for telecoms network problems, annealing and gate-based approaches, and realistic performance comparisons against classical optimisation tools used in network planning teams.
Practical workshop for security operations and network security teams at mobile network operators and fixed-line carriers. Covers cryptographic asset discovery methodology for complex, multi-vendor network environments, classification of cryptographic algorithms by quantum vulnerability, and building a migration priority matrix aligned with network criticality and customer SLAs. Uses the ETSI EN 303 645 and NCSC guidance frameworks.
A senior-level briefing for executive and strategy audiences. This session goes beyond the use-case overview to address competitive dynamics, investment sequencing, and board-level governance.
Executive briefing for CEOs, CTOs, and strategy directors at mobile operators, fixed-line carriers, and satellite communications providers. Covers the dual quantum agenda: computing applications for network optimisation and capacity planning alongside quantum security obligations from the NIS2 Directive, national telecoms security frameworks, and emerging 3GPP requirements. Addresses competitive positioning and investment prioritisation.
