Daniel Stenberg, founder and lead developer of cURL and libcurl

QUIC is the new transport protocol that replaces TCP and TLS. Why and what news does it bring?
HTTP/3 is the first application protocol over QUIC that is widely deployed. How does it work? How much web traffic is already using it? What does it take to deploy it? What is the HTTP/3 support like in browsers, servers, tools and other areas? Do we need to care? Daniel takes us through the journey into the future where we gradually will replace TCP with QUIC, with HTTP/3 as the first major step. Including deployment challenges and guesses on where the future might take us.

Managing certificates in containerized environments and service meshes can be challenging. This presentation explores options for securing certificates in such environments, including CertManager, CSR–API integrations, and Istio. We discuss container and code signing solutions and their integration into DevOps workflows. If you are looking to gain hands-on we’ve got you covered! See our DevOps workshop. 

Andreas Philipp, Senior Business Development Manager, IoT
Guillaume Crinon, Director, IoT Business Strategy

IoT device lifecycle solutions could face challenges when implementing PKI and code signing. Particularly when there isn’t enough computing power, the devices will last 20 years or longer, and offline scenarios have to be considered. In this session, we will together explore different aspects of IoT security and based on our experience, we’ll show you the best solutions and technologies we’ve implemented. 

Tomas Gustavsson, Chief PKI Officer
David Hook, VP Software Engineering Crypto Workshop

Join us for an informative session on Post Quantum Cryptography, focused on round 4 update and ongoing signature algorithm round. Get insights into current standards, including X.509 alt extensions and composite certificates for PQC migration. Explore Keyfactor’s roadmap for post-quantum cryptography, PKI, Digital Signing, and Certificate Lifecycle Management.  

Tomas Gustavsson, Chief PKI Officer

This is a unique session on Post-Quantum Cryptography benchmarking in PKI and Signing. Explore the differences in size and performance between classic and post-quantum algorithms, focusing on key and certificate sizes and issuance speeds. Evaluate the security levels of post-quantum algorithms and make fair comparisons. Gain a better understanding of the advantages and trade-offs of using post-quantum algorithms in terms of size, performance, and security. 

David Hook, VP Software Engineering Crypto Workshop

Over the last few years there has been increasing interest in languages which do explicit memory management rather than rely on garbage collectors, partly due to their low, almost “C-like”, overheads and the assurances and correctness afforded to the final executable by their language features and compilers. This session will provide a look at the on-going work the Bouncy Castle team is now doing in exploring the use of one such language, Rust, to provide a stable safe API for doing cryptography and PKI. 

Roman Cinkais, Chair of the PKI Consortium’s PKI Maturity Model Working Group – 3Key Company
Admir Abdurahmanovic, SVP Strategy

Join us for an insightful session on the PKI maturity model, where we delve into the evaluation, enhancement, and construction of robust infrastructures. Discover key strategies to assess the maturity level of your PKI system, gain valuable insights to elevate its effectiveness, and learn best practices for building a secure and mature infrastructure.
