Description:
Cryptography is at the heart of modern day privacy and security. We use it every day from sending an email to making important financial transactions.

With the advent of Quantum computing and the abilities it has brought, our security landscape has changed. Previously secure methods are becoming obsolete. Come learn about Qubits, Shor's Algorithm, and ways to keep information secure in a post-quantum world.

Before attending, it is recommended you watch the two previous talks in this series to have a better baseline.
