The quantum revolution isn’t coming it’s already here, and it’s about to shatter everything we thought we knew about cybersecurity. At Black Hat 2025, dive deep into the most critical technology shift of our lifetime as quantum computing expert Dave Krauthamer unveils how these exponentially powerful machines are simultaneously our greatest opportunity and our most terrifying threat. Quantum computers are becoming powerful enough to break encryption, either by brute force or other mechanisms that detect weaknesses, making this “not a 10-years-from-now problem” but “actually a today problem.” Discover why cybersecurity leaders are racing against time to implement post-quantum cryptography before malicious actors launch devastating “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks on the encrypted data they’re collecting today. This isn’t just another tech talk—it’s your roadmap to survival in a world where traditional encryption becomes obsolete overnight and the very foundations of digital trust must be rebuilt from the ground up.
