 Show in Google mapProtecting against cyber risks is the domain of Cybersecurity. The Cyber CNI Speaker series wants to raise awareness and understanding of cybersecurity topics. It wants to enable a continuous dialog between experts from industry and academia and the general public, including individuals, families, companies from small to large sizes, and public bodies – in short everyone, since cybersecurity is relevant for each of us.

The Cyber CNI speaker series is a free monthly event on the last Wednesday of the month from 14h-15h30. The event consists of an expert talk of about 40 minutes followed by 30 minutes discussion.

The events happen in the Grand Amphitheatre at IMT Atlantique in Rennes (Cesson-Sévigné) AND are broadcasted live over Youtube (talk.cybercni.fr/), enabling global remote participation and including a tool for participating in the discussion.

ECW 2022 : session Chaire cyberCNI

Add event to google 
Couvent des Jacobins - 20, Place Saint-Anne, 35000 Rennes
 Show in Google mapD es avancées en matière de sécurisation des infrastructures critiques – La chaire cyberCNI

Les infrastructures critiques sont des actifs qui sont vitaux pour le fonctionnement d'une société ou de l'économie comme la production d’électricité, de gaz, de pétrole, l’approvisionnement en eau, la santé publique, les transports aériens ou ferroviaires, la police, l’armée.
La chaire cybersécurité des infrastructures critiques (cyberCNI.fr) est consacrée à la recherche, l'innovation et l'enseignement dans le domaine de la cybersécurité de ces infrastructures critiques.
Dirigée par le Prof. Dr. Marc-Oliver Pahl, elle a été fondée en 2016. Les partenaires industriels actuels sont Airbus, BNP Paribas, EDF, SNCF et la région Bretagne. CyberCNI est hébergée à IMT Atlantique dans le département SRCD au campus de Rennes, et ses partenaires Télécom Paris et Télécom Sudparis.
Au cours de cette session, découvrez l’écosystème de la chaire Cyber CNI et comprenez la vie de la chaire et les défis de la cybersécurité sous l’angle de ses partenaires.
La deuxième partie est consacrée aux highlights de la recherche des post-doctorants et des doctorants de la chaire. Elle se terminera par une table ronde sur les défis et les opportunités de la cybersécurité pour les infrastructures critiques.
Advances in securing critical infrastructures - The cyberCNI industrial Chair

Critical infrastructures are assets that are vital to the functioning of a society or economy, such as the production of electricity, gas, oil, water supply, public health, air or rail transport, the police, the army.
The Chair for Cybersecurity in Critical Networked Infrastructures (cyberCNI.fr) is dedicated to research, innovation and teaching in the field of cybersecurity for critical infrastructures.
Headed by Prof. Dr. Marc-Oliver Pahl, it was founded in 2016. Current industrial partners include Airbus, BNP Paribas, EDF, SNCF and the Brittany region. CyberCNI is hosted at IMT Atlantique in the SRCD department at the Rennes campus, and its partners Télécom Paris and Télécom Sudparis.
During the first session you will discover the ecosystem of the Cyber CNI chair. You will understand the life at chair and the challenges of cybersecurity from the perspective of its partners.
The second session is dedicated to the research highlights of the Chair's post-doctoral and doctoral students. It will end with a round table on the challenges and opportunities of cybersecurity for critical infrastructures.

## Title
Quantum Prooving the Internet

## Abstract
Today’s Internet cannot do without confidentiality and online identification. The cryptography typically used to achieve this, however, is under threat from quantum computers. While a practical quantum computer is years away, it also takes years to standardise and deploy alternative cryptography. Worse, applications that store data long‐term (e.g., captured encrypted Internet traffic) require action now, since if current cryptography is broken, stored data is immediately compromised.

Cryptographers are developing post‐quantum cryptography (PQC) that is secure against attacks with quantum computers. While much progress has been made developing and trialling algorithms, we lack a complete view of the problem space. More boldly: we cannot answer the question “what if the whole Internet had to switch to PQC?”. Nobody “owns the Internet” so who will tackle this challenge? Sure, the tech giants should take action, but the Internet is much broader than that. In my view, this challenge can only be solved with an independent holistic approach that considers all aspects of the Internet.

In this talk I will explore the research challenges for quantum-proofing the whole Internet and will propose a research agenda to tackle these challenges. I will show how we need to examine all parts of the Internet that rely on public-key cryptography and how we need to decide if we can simply replace algorithms, if we maybe have to re-engineer protocols and applications, or if the costs are simply too high and we should retire protocols or applications.

## Short CV

After two decades in the industry, working on applied cryptography and network security, Roland is professor of measurement-based Internet security at the University of Twente since 2021. His research interests are in the application of global-scale Internet measurements to support empirically-backed securityanalysis and improvements of Internet protocols and the transition of the Internet to post-quantum cryptography.

## Info about your institution
