Status and Migration to Quantum-Safe TLS in Switzerland
- Topic: Emerging Technologies
- Time: 19.02.2025, 16:20 to 16:45
- Location: Tech Stage
- Language:
The basic requirements for secure communication: confidentiality, integrity and authenticity are highlighted. The threat of "harvest-now, decrypt-later" in connection with TLS is explained and solutions for mitigating this danger are presented. Short demos illustrate the practical implementation options. Finally, an overview of the current state of Internet domains in Switzerland is given based on an analysis of one million '.ch' domains.
