### An Introduction to Post-Quantum Cryptography

A large-scale quantum computer has the ability to break all current public-key cryptography used on the internet. Does one exist already? If not, what would it take to build one? What are the cryptographic and cyber security communities doing to mitigate this threat? What do I need to do to prepare for the coming crypto-pocalypse?
These questions and more will hopefully be answered in a high level discussion on physics, computing and mathematics. (No prior knowledge of physics, computing or mathematics required!).
Cipher
Cipher is an avid CTF player for the Cybears CTF team with a background in cryptography. Every CTF he says he will learn more about reverse engineering and vulnerability research, before solely focusing on cryptography challenges. Cipher has also helped run the BSides CBR CTF for the last four events.

General Info:
CSides Monthly Security Meetups provide an opportunity to listen to and share security research within the Canberra region. The meeting occurs normally on the 2nd Friday of every month. Each meetup consists of 1-2 talks of around 30 mins each. Talks start at 6pm and are followed by some socialising at a local pub. New attendees are welcome, just come along! (There are no entry fees, and no tickets to book) The talks at CSides are technical. CSides welcomes new and interesting speakers to present - the topic will be on a technical or security issue. As a speaker you can be an expert, a student, someone learning a new area or maybe a regular speaker on the conference circuit, but we also love to have new and occasional speakers. Please contact one of the organisers below if you are interested in speaking. You are very welcome to propose running activites other than talks, such as hands-on workshops, an infosec quiz or something else relevant to our techie audience!
