    Moving From Awareness To Action: The Board's Role In Organizational Resilience

    07/05/2026 | 34 mins.
    Louise Davey, President of LDIQ and author of Quantum How, joins the show to discuss why the transition to post-quantum cryptography is fundamentally a challenge of organizational governance rather than just a technical upgrade. Drawing on her unique perspective as a former experimental nuclear physicist, she explains how leaders can translate complex technical threats into the business language of risk and resilience. This episode provides a roadmap for executives to bridge the gap between technical practitioners and executive leadership to ensure long-term viability.

    RSA Conference 2026: Views on quantum-safe migrations

    16/04/2026 | 54 mins.
    Post-quantum cryptography has moved past the awareness phase. The challenge now is execution. In this episode of Shielded: The Last Line of Cyber Defense, Jo Lintzen speaks with Aisling Dawson, Senior Analyst at ABI Research, and Itan Barmes, Chief Strategy Officer at Qiz Security, live from RSA Conference 2026. They discuss why quantum conversations are losing visibility, what’s blocking progress, and why organizations are stuck between inventory, budget constraints, and ecosystem misalignment. The discussion explores cryptographic posture management, organizational readiness, regulatory pressure, and why starting imperfectly is better than waiting for complete visibility.
