Subject: Building Trust for the AI and Quantum Era
Abstract:
As AI, quantum computing, and hyper-connected devices continue to accelerate, cybersecurity is facing a fundamental transition.
Traditional security architectures based on stored secret keys are becoming increasingly vulnerable to AI-assisted attacks, supply chain compromises, and future quantum threats.
This session introduces ICTK’s approach to next-generation hardware-based trust architecture using VIA PUF (Physically Unclonable Function), Hardware Root of Trust (HRoT), and Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC).
The presentation will also discuss emerging security challenges across AI infrastructure, semiconductor supply chains, connected devices, telecommunications, and critical infrastructure environments.
In addition, the session will present ICTK’s strategic security concepts including PAZI (Post-Quantum, AI, Zero Trust, Strong Identity) and the importance of establishing trusted device identity and supply chain trust in the AI and quantum era.
