About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges and risks associated with Post-Quantum Cryptography and modern AI threats in security.

Interview with Daniel dos Santos: Post-Quantum Cryptography and the Risks No One Is Talking About Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is quickly shifting from theory to inevitability. In this segment, Daniel dos Santos, VP of Research at Forescout, explains why PQC isn’t the most immediate threat today—but still demands early attention as standards solidify and timelines accelerate. The discussion highlights overlooked risks beyond encrypted traffic, including digital signatures, firmware integrity, and blockchain systems. Daniel also emphasizes the real challenge: migration. While client-side adoption is already underway, organizations face major hurdles identifying and upgrading servers, legacy systems, and unmanaged assets like IoT and OT. The bottom line: PQC migration is unavoidable. Starting early—especially with crypto inventory and planning—will make the transition far less painful.
