The foundation on which secure systems are build is crypto graphy and one of the greatest breakthroughs in modern cryptography is the ability to perform calculations on encrypted data.\nThis means although t he true content of your data is never revealed and stays fully private you can still benefit from machine learning evaluations or remote calculation s on a server. Data can be exchanged with customers or industry partners i n a secure and privacy-preserving manner so that the actual content of you r personal phone data or the actual details about your production methods remain private and fully secure. In this session you will get an overview about cutting edge cryptographic methods and an introduction to the curren t state of the art of homomorphic encryption\, multi-party computation and so called zero-knowledge proofs. Homomorphic encryption\, one of the meth ods that allows computation on encrypted data\, is also regarded as a quan tum secure or post-quantum algorithm\, since in contrast to conventional c ryptographic methods there exists no quantum algorithm that can break its security.\n\nIn the second part of this session you will also learn about this fascinating new era of quantum computation\, where the strange and as tounding effects of quantum mechanics are used to solve problems with expo nential speedup compared to classical computers. This means by entering th e quantum world it is possible to create new machine learning algorithms t hat learn almost instantaneously or to solve optimization problems in seco nds where a classical supercomputer would take ages. You will get an intro duction and reality check on quantum computers and we will discuss how the y work\, where the current problems are and why they may change the world of data analytics completely.\nWe live in very exciting times and with the new possibilities in cryptography and quantum computing let us introduce to you two research areas we are absolutely passionate about and let us di scuss what future data analytics will hold for us.\nAfter the event you wi ll know:\n\n\n\nHow modern cryptography works\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat homomorphi c encryption is and where it can be applied\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat the advantag es of multi-party computation are\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow you can securely exchan ge data with customers and industry partners\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow a quantum co mputer works in principle\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat a quantum computer can and can not do\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhich industry problems can be tackled with quantum co mputing\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat are the current problems of quantum computing\n\ n\n\n\nSpeaker\n\n\n\n\n\nAndreas Trügler\nLeader DDAI COMET Module\n\n\n \n\n\n LOCATION;CHARSET=UTF-8: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
