  Crypto Means Cryptography - The Starting Point Before the Quantum Revolution

  Apr 23, 202657 min

  In this episode of Advancing Cyber host Cristin Flynn Goodwin kicks off a two-part conversation with renowned cryptographer Dr. Brian LaMacchia, founder of Farcaster Consulting Group and former Distinguished Engineer at Microsoft and head of the Security & Cryptography team in Microsoft Research. Before we dive into quantum in the next episode, we start with the essential foundation: cryptography. Too often mistaken for “crypto” as in cryptocurrency, cryptography is the mathematics that keeps modern life running, protecting everything from web browsing and software updates to payments, critical infrastructure, and secure communications. Cristin and Brian unpack the building blocks of our modern digital life, (encryption, integrity, and authentication), why standards and algorithm transitions matter, and what it means that “all cryptographic algorithms weaken over time.” If you want a clear, practical primer on why trust on the internet is built on cryptography and why leaders should care that we have so little time to migrate to quantum safe encryption before 2029, this is the place to start. This is a two-part conversation, so stay tuned for their upcoming conversation on quantum computing. @AdvancingCyber #quantumcomputing #quantum #cybersecurity #cyberlaw #cyberpolicy #encryption #quantummigration #encryption #standards #CISO
