Cybersecurity compliance is moving from policy discussions to urgent implementation. In the premiere episode of the ICT Compliance Pod, host Joshua Brickman speaks with four leading experts about the regulatory and cryptographic changes reshaping the ICT industry. Roland Atoui, founder of Red Alert Labs, explains how manufacturers can prepare for the EU Cyber Resilience Act and turn compliance into a competitive advantage. ABI Research’s Michela Menting shares key lessons from the International Cryptographic Module Conference, including the challenges of deploying post-quantum cryptography in embedded systems. AWS cryptographer Matthew Campagna explains the “harvest now, decrypt later” threat and the practical steps organizations should take to begin migration. NIST Fellow Lily Chen discusses the post-quantum transition, cryptographic inventories, and why crypto agility must become a long-term organizational capability. Guests focus on a common theme: Deadlines are approaching and technical challenges are significant. Sponsors:
