AppViewX’s Security Expert to Guide Enterprises on Quantum-Ready PKI at BSidesSF 2025
AppViewX Expert to Present Session on Achieving Crypto-Agility for the Quantum Era at BSidesSF 2025 AppViewX, a leading provider of automated certificate lifecycle management (CLM) and public key infrastructure (PKI) solutions, will participate in BSidesSF 2025, a prominent cybersecurity conference. Prasanth Sundararajan, Head of Product Security at AppViewX, will lead a session titled "Iron-Clad PKI: Crypto-Agility for the Quantum Era." This session is designed to help enterprises prepare for the imminent quantum computing disruption by providing practical strategies to assess and fortify their cryptographic risk posture. PKI underpins secure digital transactions, but most organizations are not ready for the quantum era. Quantum computing's rapid advancement poses a significant threat to current encryption standards, such as RSA and ECDSA, which could be broken, exposing critical data and communications. This session will delve into the following: Discovering Cryptographic Blind Spots: Identifying areas where existing security measures fall short. Prioritizing High-Risk Certificates: Focusing on the most vulnerable assets to protect against immediate threats. Transitioning to Quantum-Safe Alternatives: Implementing emerging post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards without disrupting business operations. Attendees will gain valuable, actionable insights on how to inventory their cryptographic assets, identify risk concentrations, and adopt crypto-agile strategies. These strategies will facilitate a seamless migration to post-quantum cryptography, ensuring continued security in the face of quantum computing threats. In addition to the BSidesSF session, AppViewX will showcase the AVX ONE Certificate Lifecycle and PKI platform at the RSA Conference 2025, held from April 28 to May 1 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. The platform features advanced automation for certificate and key lifecycle management, PKI-as-a-Service (PKIaaS), CLM for Kubernetes, and code signing capabilities. Visitors can stop by Booth #4608 in the North Expo to see a demo and learn more about accelerating post-quantum cryptography (PQC) readiness. Prasanth Sundararajan, with over 15 years of experience in cryptography, PKI architecture, and enterprise security operations, has led large-scale implementations of certificate lifecycle management and crypto-agility solutions for Fortune 500 companies and government agencies. He is actively involved in contributing to standards-aligned security initiatives and has a deep understanding of hybrid cryptographic environments, post-quantum readiness, and automated cryptographic risk mitigation. Event Details: - Date and Time: Sunday, April 27, 2025, 1:30 PM – 2:00 PM PDT - Location: AMC Theatre 07, San Francisco quantum computing is poised to revolutionize the cybersecurity landscape by compromising traditional encryption algorithms. Despite this pressing threat, many organizations still rely on legacy PKI infrastructure and manual management processes, which can lead to expired or misconfigured certificates, weak governance, and limited visibility into crypto assets. Prasanth will guide participants through the process of becoming crypto-agile, enabling them to adapt and evolve their cryptographic systems efficiently. This approach is crucial for maintaining security and business continuity as the industry transitions to PQC.
