The premier Quantum secure communications event

The premier Quantum secure communications event

From carrier-grade networks and satellite links to hardware roots of trust and software supply chains, QSecDef 2026 is built for teams tasked with safeguarding national infrastructure, financial services, and high-value data against the coming quantum threat. Expect headline keynotes, deep-dive technical sessions, live interoperability labs, and practical playbooks to accelerate PQC deployment across your organisation.


Whether you’re planning a phased PQC rollout, testing hybrid key exchange, hardening VPN/SD-WAN, or proving compliance with emerging mandates, you’ll leave QSD with validated reference architectures, procurement checklists, and partner connections to execute-fast.
