The quantum computing revolution threatens current encryption methods, potentially making today's cryptographic protections obsolete. Organizations must urgently prepare for NIST's finalized Post-Quantum Cryptography standards before quantum computers compromise existing security.

In this webcast, an expert panel offers vital guidance for transitioning to quantum-resistant encryption. Industry leaders provide strategic insights and practical steps to kickstart your PQC readiness journey.

Join the session now to gain the clarity and direction needed to safeguard your cryptographic infrastructure against the quantum threat.

How To Prepare for NIST's Post-Quantum Cryptography Standards

Certificates are the foundation of secure and encrypted communication, ensuring trust by authenticating users, applications, and devices. However, certificates rely on public key cryptography and encryption algorithms that will eventually be broken by powerful quantum computers. Therefore, transitioning to Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and quantum resistant certificates is now a must. As NIST has now published the first set of standard PQC encryption algorithms and guidance on PQC transition, it is time to start preparing to be quantum safe. Join us for this expert-led webinar, where we’ll guide you through the essential steps to start getting quantum-ready.

 Key takeaways:
* Understand the urgency: Why PQC migration is crucial
* Your Choice of Algorithms: NIST PQC standardization and future outlook
* Actionable strategies: Learn practical steps to start your PQC readiness with certificate visibility, automation and control–the essentials for Crypto-Agility.

 Hear from Ganesh Gopalan, specialist in certificate lifecycle management, and Kevin McKeogh, a cryptographic expert and GP HSM Product Lead, bringing you a comprehensive perspective from both sides. With expertise in certificate management and cryptography, this webinar will provide you with practical guidance to begin your PQC readiness and journey to future-proof your certificates.

Shorter-lived TLS certificates are coming. Google and Apple are pushing for 90-day and 47-day certificates respectively, while Let’s Encrypt is even testing 6-day certificates. This shift is happening fast. You need certificate lifecycle management (CLM) automation and crypto-agility to keep up.

Moving from a 398-day renewal cycle to just 90 or 47 days is a whole new ballgame. Without the right strategy, processes, and solutions, managing certificates at this pace could negatively impact your organization–leading to downtime, revenue loss, and reputational damage.

On April 23, join us for an exclusive webinar with Christian Simko (VP of Product Marketing) and Cally Fritsch (Director of Product Marketing) at AppViewX, as they dive into why crypto-agility is absolutely necessary for managing shorter-lived certificates at scale.

Non-human identities present a relatively new challenge for enterprise security teams. Non-human identities, including digital certificates, service accounts and bots, secrets, and OAuth tokens, frequently have broad privileges and are an attractive attack vector for adversaries. Getting visibility to these identities and managing the risk associated with them can be new territory for many security teams.  

Recent research from the Enterprise Strategy Group shows  that inadequate management can increase risk with consequences running the gamut from downed systems to compliance concerns to data breaches. With non-human identity security concerns now getting board level attention, this webinar will explain the management challenges, how enterprises are innovating to address those challenges, and provide best practices in addressing these challenges.

Kubernetes is a highly complex environment to secure and native security controls offered by Kubernetes and other open-source solutions often fall short. 

PKI-based TLS certificates are highly-recommended for Kubernetes security. With identities, authentication, and encryption - TLS certificates offer an effective way of securing multiple layers in Kubernetes, encompassing the Ingress traffic, Service Mesh and pod-to-pod communications, and Kubernetes infrastructure components. 

However, managing a high-volume of short-lived TLS certificates in Kubernetes is not easy. Issuing certificates at DevOps speed while ensuring certificates are valid, secure, and compliant, can become extremely daunting for security teams. 

The key to navigating these challenges and bringing security up to speed with DevOps lies in simplifying certificate lifecycle management for Kubernetes. 

Join our webinar with, Harshana Morthy, Lead Principal Solutions Architect, AppViewX for a deeper dive on: 

- Fortifying Kubernetes security with PKI and TLS/mTLS certificates 
- The challenges of managing certificates across Kubernetes environments 
- How to simplify and modernize Certificate Lifecycle Management to harden Kubernetes security and enable DevOps speed and agility
