Last year we made three predictions about what would happen in the world of cybersecurity. How did we do? Join host Ken Kadet and guests Anudeep Parhar, Greg Wetmore, and Mark Ruchie for a discussion on how 2023 took shape in both expected and surprising ways.

The world is relying more on artificial intelligence to improve the way we do business, serve citizens, and live our lives. How can we protect AI from itself and the forces that would put the potential benefits it creates at risk? Join host Ken Kadet and guests Greg Wetmore and Pali Surdhar to learn more.

Deepfakes and synthetic identities are posing a threat to banks and financial organizations – organizations that are required to “know your customer”. Join host Ken Kadet as he speaks with Jordan Avnaim, CISO at Entrust, and Greg Wetmore, VP of Product Development at Entrust about how you can protect customers in an increasingly AI-driven landscape.

AI has started an arms race in cybersecurity. Will this continue to escalate or is AI just the latest tool where winning requires an ongoing state of Zero Trust? Join host Ken Kadet as he speaks to Greg Wetmore (VP of Software Development, Entrust) and Rishi Kaushal (CIO, Entrust) about AI from the enterprise security perspective.

CISA's (Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s) strategic plan was just recently released and focuses on four key areas: cyber defense, risk reduction and resilience, operational collaboration, and agency unification. What can we learn from this work? Where does it fall short? How is this elevating or helping the practice of cybersecurity in the US, and around the world? Join our host, Ken Kadet, as he talks about this and more with Entrust CISO Mark Ruchie and Paul Calatayud, Co-Founder & Chief Strategy Officer at ONDA Group and former CSO at Palo Alto Networks and CTO at FireMon.

What’s next in the war for the wallet, and how do you win? What can big banks, big tech, and big financial institutions learn from each other? Join our hosts Ken Kadet as he discusses the rapidly changing banking and payments landscape with industry experts who provide their insights on the risks and opportunities.

In this podcast episode, host Samantha Mabey talks to Brian LaMacchia, President of FARCASTER Consulting Group and former distinguished Engineer for Cryptography at Microsoft, about the decades of research that’s gone into Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC), and how the pace and intensity of academic PQ research compares with previous eras of cryptography. They also discuss the standardization process of PQC, including the algorithms under review in the NIST competition today, and how PQC standards are likely to evolve in the future.

In this special post-quantum episode, guest host, Samantha Mabey, speaks with Dr. Sarah McCarthy, cryptographic strategist at evolutionQ and an affiliate of the University of Waterloo, and Anthony Hu, senior software developer at wolfSSL to discuss the impact of post-quantum on constrained devices from WIFI doorbells, to thermometers, to automotive tire pressure sensors and how these devices are going to manage algorithms that are at least 20x bigger and heavier than elliptic curve cryptography.

Entrust experts Mark Ruchie, Rishi Kaushal and Greg Wetmore takes on the evolution of phishing in our June Cybersecurity Institute podcast, going deep on phishing-resistant MFA, the impact of AI and ChatGPT, and more.

Entrust experts Mark Ruchie, Rishi Kaushal and Greg Wetmore talk about the building blocks of a robust Zero Trust framework, the CISA maturity model and more. It’s clear from the discussion that today we find ourselves at a turning point – zero trust is now a priority and focus for leaders at the highest level of organizations and governments alike.

In this special post-quantum episode, guest host, Samantha Mabey, speaks with Sandy Carielli, Principal Analyst at Forrester, for her insights on the recent uptick in government action that has been taking place – such as the Quantum Computing Cybersecurity Preparedness Act – and what that means non-federal agencies. She also discusses some of the challenges organizations will face when it comes to preparing for and migrating to post-quantum cryptography.

In today's digital age, identity has become a powerful and valuable commodity. But who owns it, and how can we protect it? Join us in this episode of the Entrust Cybersecurity Institute podcast as we explore the future of identity with our team of experts. From the challenges of authentication and password security to the role of biometrics and digital government IDs, we'll delve into the key issues facing companies today. We'll also discuss the pros and cons of centralized vs. decentralized identity solutions, and share our predictions for what's to come.

Has artificial intelligence (AI) finally arrived in software development? What are the implications for cybersecurity and the way organizations do business today? Join our host Ken Kadet as he discusses the future of AI with leaders in software development at Entrust who provide their insights on the present state of and future potential uses of AI.

The cybersecurity arms race is accelerating. That’s the clear lesson of 2022 for those of us committed to protecting organizations from the perils of cyberattacks. But what about the year to come? Join our host Ken Kadet as he speaks to the experts to find out their predictions for cybersecurity in 2023.

We talk with renowned quantum academic Dr. Michele Mosca, deputy director of the Institute for Quantum Computing, and founder and CEO of evolutionQ, and Mike Ounsworth, software security architect at Entrust, on the future of post-quantum cryptography: from the NIST competition, post-quantum digital certificates, and what organizations should do to prepare for and use PQC algorithms. From our Entrust Engage podcast’s Post Quantum Cryptography series, originally posted in September 2022.

What is the current state of quantum computers, and what developments can we expect in the coming years? We talk with Richard Moulds, General Manager of AWS Bracket on the applications of quantum computers in coming years as well as how organizations are tapping into their capabilities today. He also shares how he sees quantum computing playing out, and how the democratization of the technology could make quantum computing available for all. From our Entrust Engage podcast’s Post Quantum Cryptography series, originally posted in July 2022.

We interview Duncan Jones, head of cybersecurity at Cambridge Quantum Computing, part of Quantinum, on the potential of quantum computers today, cryptographic keys, and harnessing quantum randomness for the development of random number generators (RNGs). From the Entrust Engage podcast Post Quantum Cryptography series, originally posted in June 2022.

Every time you see a big cybersecurity crisis or incident – like Colonial Pipeline, Solar Winds, log4j – leaders and Boards rush out to invest more in monitoring and detection technologies, but are we neglecting the "roads and bridges" of data protection and access management? Why do investments in cryptography infrastructure and access and policy management that protect your organization and data remain a harder sell? Entrust CIO Anudeep Parhar and Dr. Pali Surdhar, Director of Product Security share their unique perspectives and why enterprises must make the shift from rewarding the cybersecurity hero that saves the day to celebrating "no news is good news."

How will quantum computing impact security of the blockchain? Blockchain expert Jon Geater, Chief Product & Technology Officer at RKVST and Pali Surdhar, Director of Product Security at Entrust break down the migration of today’s distributed ledger technology to one that’s quantum resistant, and address how blockchain technology will be affected in a post-quantum world. From the Entrust Engage podcast Post Quantum Cryptography series, originally posted in May 2022.

Host Samantha Mabey interviews award-winning quantum physicist and CEO of Nu Quantum, Dr. Carmen Palacios-Berraquero on the science of quantum computing, the main technologies at play in the industry, and the opportunities our growing understanding of quantum physics will enable.
