Quantum in the Cloud: The impact of Quantum Technologies on Cloud Security
2021 02 25 Quantum in the Cloud.pdfPresenter: Bruno Huttner

It is now well established that the quantum computer threatens to destroy our cybersecurity infrastructure. The exact timing is still under debate, but a range of ten to fifteen years is generally accepted by the community. In order to protect communications and the safety of all our remote transactions and especially for all cloud applications, we need to start acting now. Fortunately, solutions do exist.
The simplest solutions are classical. They consist of replacing the current algorithms under attack with new ones, which are thought to be resistant to the quantum computer. In addition, in order to further improve security, quantum solutions should be added. In particular Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNG’s) will improve the quality of cryptographic keys, which are broadly used for cybersecurity. They are already available for many applications. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) can also be used today to protect the confidentiality of communications. QKD backbones are currently under development in several countries. Looking a bit further down the road, quantum networks and the Quantum Internet offer the promise of a different communication infrastructure. The next ten years, dubbed the Quantum Decade , will undoubtedly change the landscape of Cloud security.

The presentation is focused on organisation's security posture on AWS, which is also valid for organisations considering using AWS. It starts by introducing a top 10 list of "10 places your security team should spend time". It then explains the background to this list, where it came from! Followed by a walk-through of each item on the list, elaborating on the item and providing AWS best practice guidance. It ends with a recap of the list sums up with where to go to find more detail on the best practice.
