Paul Kogelheide and Tobias Fehenberger outline steps to make your network PQC‑ready and NIS2-compliant at it‑sa 2025

Tutorial will explain how post-quantum cryptography and NIS2 are driving a layered approach to network defense – from fiber optics to security

  • Speakers: Tobias Fehenberger, director of R&D strategy at Adva Network Security; Paul Kogelheide, key account manager for cybersecurity at Adva Network Security
  • Topics: From light signals to cyber defense – what PQC and NIS2 mean for network security
  • When:  Tuesday, October 7, 4:30 p.m. CET
  • Where: it-sa Expo&Congress 2025, NürnbergMesse, Nuremberg, Germany https://www.itsa365.de/en/it-sa-expo-congress

As cyber threats grow more sophisticated and regulations like the EU’s NIS2 directive raise the bar for resilience, organizations are under pressure to rethink their entire security posture. That urgency is only heightened by the coming threat of quantum-enabled attacks. It’s no longer enough to consider individual technologies in isolation – what’s needed is a systemic approach that secures every layer of the network, from fiber to endpoint.

In this session, Tobias Fehenberger and Paul Kogelheide will provide an overview of where traditional encryption fits, where it falls short and how a coordinated architecture can strengthen protection across the network. They will focus on the role of a modern Security Operations Center (SOC) and offer actionable steps companies can take to prepare for quantum-secure communication and NIS2 compliance.
