DESCRIPTION:PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE OF ROOM. THE TALK WILL TAKE
  PLACE IN FW26\, NOT FW11.\n\nAbstract\n\nQuantum 
 computing is an emerging new technology which prom
 ises to completely change computing as we know it.
  In particular\, the advent of quantum computers p
 oses a serious threat to cybersecurity. Encryption
  methods hailed as ‘unbreakable’ by classical comp
 uters can be cracked by quantum computers in a mat
 ter of hours. In this talk\, we will discuss the b
 asics of quantum computing and how it could be use
 d to attack common encryption algorithms. We also 
 introduce and evaluate the top candidates to repla
 ce our current encryption methods for a post-quant
 um era.\n\nSpeakers\n\nLeading this presentation i
 s Data Reply’s Quantum Computing Consultant Anuj D
 oshi\, an Oxford alumnus who has been working on q
 uantum computing applications for over a year\, sp
 ecializing in quantum circuit architectures in mac
 hine learning. Joining him is recent Cambridge gra
 duate Vasundhara Prasad\, who has previously worke
 d on financial uses of gate-based quantum computin
 g and is now working on other quantum computing ap
 plications.\n\nAbout Data Reply\n\nData Reply is t
 he Reply Group company offering a broad range of a
 nalytics and data processing services. We operate 
 across different industries and business functions
 \, working directly with executive level professio
 nals\, enabling them to achieve meaningful outcome
 s through effective use of data. We support compan
 ies in designing and implementing human-centered d
 ata products to turn embryonic ideas into enterpri
 se solutions. We aim at handling trade-offs among 
 business requirements and technical constraints\, 
 developing holistic Big Data architectures and ens
 uring cybersecurity and data protection. We have s
 trong competences in Big Data Engineering\, Data S
 cience and IPA \; we build Big Data platforms and 
 implement ML and AI models in a manner that is rep
 eatable\, efficient\, scalable\, simple and yet se
 cure. We support companies in combinatorial optimi
 zation processes with Quantum Computing techniques
  that enable an engine with high computational per
 formances.\n\nAttendance: Please sign-up at the fo
