Group 17

This keynote will mainly present ways forward to respond computing threats and recent
standardization activities in ITU-T. It provides current PQC standardization activities and a
need for using and migrating to PQC. It also presents how efficiently to migrate current trust
infrastructures to those based on PQC.

In addition, it will also focus on ITU-X.509’s migration to Post Quantum Cryptography
including various options. It will emphasize the need for collaboration among the related SDOs to
achieve the grand goal for the migration.
