BSides Joburg 2024

Ivan Burke

I have been a cyber security researcher for over 15 years. Mostly working with the CSIR and SANDF. For the last few years I have been working for BlueVision ITM as the head of Research, Development and Innovation. This has allowed me to build cyber security challenges for universities and to get involved with cyber security conferences such as BSides and 0xCon.

The evolution/revolution of Cryptography and Quantum Computing in Cyber Security
Ivan Burke, Sa'ad Kari, Vimilan Naiker

In this talk we provide a brief introduction to common cryptographic algorithms and weaknesses within their implementation. We show how quantum computing trivializes the exploitation of these weaknesses and how modern quantum resistant cryptographic algorithms seek to overcome these issues.
