Practical Insights from Following NIST SP 1800-38B

Alexander Löw – CEO at Data-Warehouse

In this session, Dr. Alexander Löw from Data-Warehouse will share real-world experiences from the National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) regarding the implementation of NIST SP 1800-38B. Alexander will delve into the practical application of public key application discovery tools within the context of transitioning to PQC.

Participants will gain insights into the step-by-step process outlined in SP 1800-38B, including identifying public key cryptographic algorithms in use, assessing their vulnerability to quantum attacks, developing a migration strategy, and implementing new PQC algorithms.

By walking through the challenges encountered, attendees gain insights into what to expect during their transition, and learn about the role and benefits of Cryptographic Agility, Cryptographic Inventory, Cryptographic Bill of Material (CBOM), Software Bill of Material (SBOM), and Cryptographic Governance, providing comprehensive insights based on real-world experiences from following the National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE).
