On Tuesday, October 15, Gina Otts, Director of Emerging Technologies in Verizon’s Product Development, and Sally Kammer, Distinguished Technical Staff in Verizon’s Voice Planning, presented to Dallas SWE on Quantum Cryptography at Verizon’s Adutitorum in Irving. Covering current and future quantum security measures and the impact of crypo algorithms, Dallas SWE and Verizon employee attendees were treated to a fascinating technical talk about the future of quantum computing, cryptography, and cyber security. The speakers also fielded questions from the audience after the main presentation, prompting dynamic, thoughtful, and interactive discussion.
Verizon provided the presentation via WebEx for those unable to attend the meeting in person, giving Dallas SWE members the second teleconferenced of the year. Using Slido, both digital attendees and those in the auditorium could send in questions and comments for feedback.
Special thanks to Sally Kammer for not only speaking, but organizing the event! Thank you to Gina Otts for presenting and Samantha Hawkins for helping at the event.
If you are interested in learning more or if you are planning to attend the Society conference, Gina and Sally will be presenting the Quantum Cryptography talk at WE19 in Anaheim on Thursday, November 7 at 2pm. Come show your support!
