QSECDEF Symposium 2026
quantum-secure communications
and post-quantum cryptography for cybersecurity and defence.
Quantum Security DefenCe World Symposium first edition will be held on the afternoon of March 24 at the Palais des Congrès de Paris.
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.
