  • PQC Integration: Evaluating and Deploying Post-Quantum Cryptography

Tuesday 25 November 2025

10:00 am CET (UTC+01:00)

Join us for a live webinar exploring the latest requirements and policies shaping the post-quantum transition! 

Discover why classical cryptographic algorithms are at risk, which ones are threatened and which remain secure. We will walk through the latest post-quantum standardized algorithms, and how these are expected to be implemented across industries.

Further, learn how Brightsight became the first lab to evaluate PQC-enabled products, and how we are committed to leading the way in the upcoming era of security evaluations.

The webinar is aimed at developers/manufactures, that are still unsure of what is expected from them when it comes to integrating PQC on their products, and also audience that would like to close some gaps related to the PQC transition.

Key topics

The challenges that led to the development of PQC

The current status of PQC standardization efforts in America, Europe and Asia

The transition policies already adopted by national institutes

The analysis of suggestions for integrating PQC into products

The expectations for developers, labs, and certification bodies

How Brightsight can support developers through its security evaluation services

Speakers

Nikolaos Polychronou

Nikolaos Polychronou

Security Evaluator, Brightsight

During his PhD, Nikolaos studied solutions that will aid attack detection in resource constrained devices such as IoT. Apart from developing such solution, he evaluated how such solution and other State-of-the-Art implementations could be bypassed, and proposed ways to strength the detection capabilities, keeping in mind the resource limitation imposed by IoT systems. 

With a previous experience in side-channel attacks, where he worked on second-order attacks on AES and countermeasures, he joined Brightsight after his PhD with the role of side-channel security evaluator and later enrolled to Common Criteria evaluations, being already involved in several different certifications.

He is passionate about Machine Learning and its advances in side-channel analysis.

Clement Gentilucci

Security Evaluator, Brightsight

Clement got his master degree in mathematics and went on to specialise in cryptography validated by a second master degree. A three years experience as research assistant in the sub-field of functional encryption lead him to re-focus his interest toward micro-electronic.

Joining one of the secure microcontroller designer for a period of 2 years as cryptographic engineer, allowed him to get  a good understanding of the inner-working of embedded secure device.

He then joined Brightsight as a side-channel security evaluator and now also crypto code reviewer.
