Saudi Arabia's post-quantum requirements for SAMA-licensed institutions, government entities and critical national infrastructure. We cover SAMA's 2026 quantum circular, the NCA's cryptographic standards and controls, and the evidence supervisors will ask for. CISOs, chief risk officers, compliance officers and migration program managers at SAMA-licensed banks, finance and payment companies, credit information companies and financing support entities. Also useful for government entities and critical national infrastructure operators that follow NCA controls, and for the technology providers that serve them.

The half-day entry point to post-quantum cryptography: what changes, why it matters now, and the vocabulary every later course assumes. Built for those who need to understand PQC well enough to contribute to organizational discussions and planning, who are evaluating whether to pursue formal PQC certification, and who want to assess your organization's quantum exposure at a conceptual level.
A focused four-hour session on quantum risk in financial services, built for teams that need the sector picture without the full-day depth. Security leaders, risk managers, compliance officers, technology architects, and program managers at banks, broker-dealers, asset managers, insurers, and financial market infrastructure operators. Also appropriate for financial regulators and supervisory technology specialists.

A full-day intensive on quantum-safe transformation in financial services: regulatory drivers, cryptographic estate discovery, and migration sequencing for banking infrastructure. Security leaders, architects, risk and compliance officers, and program managers at banks, broker-dealers, asset managers, insurers, and market infrastructure operators who own or will own part of the PQC migration.
A two-hour briefing for board members on quantum risk, fiduciary exposure, and the questions to put to management. Non-executive directors, board members, audit committee members, risk committee members, and corporate secretaries preparing board materials on technology risk.
Two hours on building the internal business case for PQC migration: framing, budget logic, and the arguments a CFO will accept. CISOs, security program managers, and anyone responsible for securing PQC migration funding. Also useful for CFOs, finance leaders, and budget committee members who want to understand what they are being asked to fund.
Lead PQC migration programs with confidence. Covers migration governance, regulatory compliance, organizational readiness, risk communication, vendor management, and program execution. Prerequisite: PQCS certification. CISOs, security managers, program managers, project managers, compliance managers, risk managers, and senior technical leaders who are responsible – or will be responsible – for overseeing PQC migration within their organizations. It is also appropriate for consultants and advisors who guide clients through PQC transitions.
The half-day entry point to post-quantum cryptography: what changes, why it matters now, and the vocabulary every later course assumes. Security professionals, IT managers, compliance officers, risk analysts, software developers, enterprise architects, and business leaders who need a grounded introduction to post-quantum cryptography. No prior quantum computing or advanced cryptography knowledge is required.
Find where cryptography lives. Build a cryptographic bill of materials (CBOM) from discovery through prioritized action. Enterprise tooling, automation approaches, and the scoring model that drives migration sequencing. Security engineers, security architects, IT asset management professionals, and anyone tasked with leading or conducting cryptographic discovery for PQC migration.
Executive-level immersion in quantum technology. Day 1: computing, networking, and sensing. Day 2: the security dimension. Small group format (max 12). Includes guided self-assessment and personalized action plan. C-suite executives, board members, senior government officials, investment committee members, and organizational leaders who need both the technology perspective and the security perspective in a concentrated, high-access format.
Four hours for senior leaders on quantum security exposure, regulatory direction, and what an adequate response looks like. CISOs, CIOs, CTOs, VPs of engineering, and senior IT leaders. Also appropriate for risk officers and compliance leaders who need the security context before engaging with PQC governance.
Building systems that can transition between cryptographic algorithms without major re-engineering. Architecture patterns that achieve agility versus patterns that only claim it. Standards, testing, and compliance considerations. Security architects, principal engineers, and technical leads who will design the systems that have to keep working through the next algorithm change as well as this one. It suits anyone whose remit is the target state rather than the current migration. If you need to execute a migration now rather than design for the one after it, PQC Migration: Executing the Waves is the more useful course.
