A Call to Action for a Global Response to the Quantum Threat

The 13th International Cryptographic Module Conference (ICMC) returns this spring at a pivotal moment for commercial cryptography. Future quantum computers pose a catastrophic threat to global infrastructure and markets by potentially breaking current encryption methods. While the transition to “post-quantum” encryption has begun, Q Day is approaching fast. ICMC will offer a comprehensive survey of the global response across regions, industries, governments, standards bodies, and certification frameworks. This special edition of ICMC calls for a unified, global response to this shared threat.

Building on over a decade of cybersecurity thought leadership, ICMC will address critical topics shaping the global transition to post-quantum cryptography. Topics include: international perspectives on national plans for the PQ transition; industry preparedness across key sectors such as media, internet devices, automotive, networks, and financial transactions; and new certification requirements in national and private frameworks. Special sessions will focus on cloud, AI, homomorphic cryptography, SBOM, and other cutting-edge areas.

As the premier annual event for global expertise in commercial cryptography, ICMC25 will bring together over 400 industry leaders from 27 countries. The event will tackle the unique challenges faced by those who develop, produce, test, specify, and use cryptographic modules, with a strong focus on standards such as FIPS 140-3, ISO/IEC 19790, Common Criteria, and others. ICMC fosters a focused and organized community, reviewing key technical issues including physical security, key management, side-channel analysis, open-source development, algorithm testing, quantum threats, embedded applications, standardization, validation programs, government policy, professional ethics, and more.

Special-Focus Event:

Presented April 7, this optional special-focus event will help you prepare now for the threat posed by future quantum computers. Key topics include: Understanding the threat and projected timelines; assessing current encryption vulnerabilities; transitioning to standardized quantum-resistant cryptography; creating effective policies and procedures; ensuring system resilience and backups; engaging with vendors and third-party suppliers; educating team members and stakeholders; complying with regulatory requirements. This special-focus event will include important, actionable information for anyone concerned with cybersecurity in a data-dependent enterprise. The complete agenda will be posted in November.

FIPS 140 Certificate Presentation Ceremony

A free event for conference registrants. During ICMC, FIPS-certified product developers will have the opportunity to receive a commemorative certificate from NIST and receive of photograph of the presentation. Click here for complete information.

Who Should Attend

ICMC is designed for anyone involved with data security based in commercial encryption, especially those who develop, manufacture, test, specify or use certified commercial off the shelf cryptographic modules, with a special focus on standards like FIPS 140-3, ISO/IEC 19790, PCI, and common criteria. Participants include cryptographic module developers, testing labs, government standards organizations, private schemes, embedded systems OEMs, academics, and the side channel research community.
