SUMMARY:Q-Day estimates in 2026: what changed and what didn't – Free Webinar
DESCRIPTION:A free one-hour webinar from Quantum Academy and Applied Quantum on the 2026 estimates for breaking RSA and elliptic-curve cryptography\, and what they mean for a migration plan. \nPublished estimates for breaking RSA-2048 fell from about 20 million physical qubits in 2019 to under one million in 2025. In February 2026\, an Iceberg Quantum simulation put the figure under 100\,000. In March\, Google put 256-bit elliptic curves under 500\,000 physical qubits and set 2029 as its own migration deadline. \nIn October\, Google demonstrated magic-state cultivation on its Willow processor\, a technique the 2025 RSA estimate relies on. Quantinuum showed logical errors falling as its color codes grow on Helios. Neither result lowers the estimates. Willow has 105 physical qubits\, and Helios has 98. \nFor CISOs\, security architects and risk leaders who need to explain the 2026 numbers to a board or a budget committee. \nWhat we cover\n\nHow the qubit estimates for RSA-2048 and 256-bit elliptic curves fell between 2019 and 2026\, and which assumptions changed each time\nWhat Google and Quantinuum demonstrated in October\, and what they announced\nWhy physical and logical qubit counts are not comparable\, and how to read a claim of either\nWhat the new estimates change in a migration plan\, and what they leave unchanged\n\nThe format\n60 minutes\, live online from 15:00 to 16:00 UTC: about 45 minutes of teaching\, then 15 minutes for your questions. Registration is free\, and everyone who registers receives the recording. \nThe full course on quantum risk for security leaders is Quantum Risk for CISOs. Dates and booking are on the course page. \nThis webinar is educational and informational\, and is not legal\, compliance\, or engineering advice.

SUMMARY:Briefing the board on quantum risk: the questions directors ask – Free Webinar
DESCRIPTION:A free one-hour webinar from Quantum Academy and Applied Quantum for board members and the executives who brief them on quantum risk. \nDirectors decide four things about quantum risk: exposure\, timing\, budget and accountability. We go through the questions boards ask about each\, with answers that neither overstate nor understate the threat. \nRegulators have already set two of the dates directors need. The EU roadmap expects high-risk systems migrated by 2030\, and US federal high-value systems need post-quantum key establishment by the end of 2030. \nFor board directors\, audit and risk committee members\, CEOs\, and the CISOs and CROs who report to them. \nWhat we cover\n\nThe questions directors ask about exposure\, and the evidence that answers them\nHow to set the timing of a migration against regulatory deadlines rather than a predicted Q-Day\nWhat the board should expect to fund in the first year\, and how to judge the request\nWho owns the migration\, and what the board should hear from that owner each quarter\n\nThe format\n60 minutes\, live online from 20:00 to 21:00 UTC: about 45 minutes of teaching\, then 15 minutes for your questions. Registration is free\, and everyone who registers receives the recording. \nThe full courses are Quantum Security for Boards and PQC Migration: Building the Business Case.

SUMMARY:Global PQC deadlines: one migration plan for every regulator you answer to – Free Webinar
DESCRIPTION:A free one-hour webinar from Quantum Academy and Applied Quantum on building one post-quantum migration plan that satisfies every regulator an organization answers to. \nAuthorities in 24 jurisdictions have published post-quantum guidance or deadlines. Most end dates are 2035\, but more deadlines are due in 2030 than in any other year. By then\, Australia’s ASD expects classical public-key cryptography retired\, and the EU roadmap expects high-risk use cases migrated. \nThe authorities also disagree on configuration. Germany and France recommend hybrid key exchange and Australia does not\, so a multinational has to choose protocol by protocol. \nFor compliance and GRC leads\, CISOs and migration program owners at organizations that operate in several countries. \nWhat we cover\n\nThe dates that apply in the US\, the EU\, the UK\, Canada\, Australia and Singapore\nWhere national guidance conflicts\, starting with hybrid key exchange\nHow to build one plan against the earliest date that binds you\nWhich deadlines this decade need budget now\n\nThe format\n60 minutes\, live online from 13:00 to 14:00 UTC: about 45 minutes of teaching\, then 15 minutes for your questions. Registration is free\, and everyone who registers receives the recording. \nThe full course is PQC Compliance: Global Overview\, and nine national courses cover individual jurisdictions. Dates and booking are on each course page. \nThis webinar is educational and informational\, and is not legal\, compliance\, or engineering advice.

SUMMARY:Quantum-safe payments: which keys in a cross-border payment change first – Free Webinar
DESCRIPTION:A free one-hour webinar from Quantum Academy and Applied Quantum on the keys and certificates inside a payment\, and the order in which they change. \nDrawn as a diagram\, a cross-border payment has about seven hops\, each labeled “encrypted”. Opened up\, the customer’s first hop involves four cryptographic objects with three owners and three renewal calendars. The SWIFT gateway hop involves at least five\, and the bank can change only two of them itself. \nPCI DSS v4.0 requirement 12.3.3 already asks for the cipher suites and protocols in use to be documented and reviewed every 12 months. We sort a payment’s keys and certificates by owner and required lifetime\, and turn the result into a migration order. \nFor payments architects\, HSM and PKI teams\, payment scheme specialists\, and security leaders at banks\, processors and payment firms. \nWhat we cover\n\nWhich RSA and elliptic-curve keys a card payment and a cross-border transfer use\nWhich keys and certificates a bank can change itself\, and which depend on schemes\, networks and vendors\nHow long each object has to remain valid\, and what that means for harvest-now-decrypt-later exposure\nHow to turn the inventory into a migration order\n\nThe format\n60 minutes\, live online from 14:00 to 15:00 UTC: about 45 minutes of teaching\, then 15 minutes for your questions. Registration is free\, and everyone who registers receives the recording. \nThe full course is the Quantum-Safe Payments Intensive.

SUMMARY:Bitcoin and Ethereum after Google's elliptic-curve estimate – Free Webinar
DESCRIPTION:A free one-hour webinar from Quantum Academy and Applied Quantum on what the 2026 quantum estimates mean for Bitcoin\, Ethereum and other digital assets. \nGoogle estimated in March 2026 that breaking 256-bit elliptic-curve keys would take fewer than 500\,000 physical qubits. Bitcoin and Ethereum signatures use a 256-bit elliptic curve. \nOn October 13\, Coinbase published technical priorities for Bitcoin’s post-quantum migration\, which it called a multi-year effort\, and cited BIP-360 among the candidate designs. \nFor digital asset custodians and exchanges\, protocol and wallet developers\, and the risk and compliance teams that oversee them. \nWhat we cover\n\nWhich Bitcoin and Ethereum addresses expose a public key\, and what that means for quantum risk\nWhat the 2026 estimates change for custody and key management\nThe migration proposals under discussion\, including BIP-360\nWhat custodians and exchanges can do before the protocols change\n\nThe format\n60 minutes\, live online from 13:00 to 14:00 UTC: about 45 minutes of teaching\, then 15 minutes for your questions. Registration is free\, and everyone who registers receives the recording. \nThe full course is the Quantum-Safe Digital Assets Intensive.
