Operators have to start migrating equipment with a 25-year service life before every post-quantum question is settled. Many OT devices lack the computing power for the new algorithms, and safety-critical systems cannot go offline outside planned shutdowns. IEC 62443 and NERC CIP add approval requirements to each change. For devices that cannot be upgraded, the options are a quantum-safe gateway, isolation or early retirement.
The overview suits manufacturing, transport, water, chemicals and any organization running industrial control systems. In the intensive, you plan the migration around your own safety cases, patching windows and device lifetimes. We teach both courses from the OT and Critical Infrastructure Extension of the Applied Quantum PQC Migration Framework. If you run a regulated utility, also see Energy & Utilities.
