ICMC 2024 has Arrived, and We’ll See You There

It’s finally time for the International Cryptographic Module Conference this year! ICMC 2024 will perhaps be the most energized ICMC to date, as post-quantum cryptography (PQC) – a topic that’s been weighing on most of our minds – features prominently on the agenda. There will also be exciting panels on the NCCoE’s Automation of Module Validation Project (AMVP), the upcoming updates to ISO/IEC 19790, and a whole lot more.

If you haven’t decided which sessions you’re attending, head over to ICMC’s agenda page to start putting your schedule together.

And, as is tradition, we’ve prepared a light-hearted animation to kick off the event, and it’s got the three essential Ps: Penguins, Pirates, and PQC. (We think they’re essential, at least!) If you haven’t had a chance to see it, you can give it a watch below:

While atsec won’t have any presentations covering penguins or pirates, we will have multiple sessions on other interesting topics, be speaking on several panels, and have a booth at the event with some goodies we think will give you a laugh.

We hope to see you at some of our sessions and at our booth!
